These tools are used for cutting materials where no special considerations are needed. The upcut spiral will provide a smooth bottom finish, while auguring the chips upward. Due to the upcut design and the included angle of the cutting edge, these tools are extremely sharp. The helical cutting edge reduces material contact while in the cut, this is why spiral designs cut faster, quieter and cleaner than straight edge tools.
Double flute spiral tools are used when a smooth edge cut is required and is a popular design for most routing applications.
