Product Information:
The new Lama-Trim Bit from Velepec files laminates faster and better than any other bit on the market today. The Lama-Trim Bit has an unusual grind on each of its two flutes. One flute cuts a vertical bevel and the other cuts a horizontal bevel. The two bevels combined produce a perfect cut that requires no filling. The bit is available in two sizes to file vertical and horizontal mica. Lets face it, hand filling has got to be one of the worst jobs in the shop. Now with the addition of the Lama-Trim Bit it's never been easier. Set up is simple, all you need is a good "fixed" base router. I say fixed because it's critical that the bit be perpendicular to the base. After you've installed the bit you adjust it like you would a bevel bit. It is recommended that you flush cut your laminate and clean the edge before you use the Lama-Trim Bit. Any contamination on the edge will be transferred to the top giving you a bumpy finish. This bit is designed in such a way that it cuts two bevels, leaving you with a smooth edge requiring NO FILING. If you take the time to set up the bit properly it will save you endless hours of hand filing. That's all there is to it, no special air tools or large investments.
This bit is to be used on .025-.038 Thick Laminates
