Hi, I am cutting some 1 1/2" baltic birch with a wood laminate face with the 46577-K bit. I am using a Colex CNC router that typically runs at 25000 rpms and 150 in/min two passes with a single flute upcut bit for routing say 1/2" MDO. I was wondering with this bit, would you recommend running it any different with it cutting that thick of material with that long of bit? Thanks!

Dear Chad,
For this bit, I would not advise this. Even our longest Baltic birch compression bits don't reach that long and therefore we would recommend a standard compression bit at 3/8" part number 46179-K
Thank you,
Kevin
