Amana Tool Unveils In-Tech™ Series of Replaceable Knife Router Bits

industrial-quality tungsten
(Farmingdale, N.Y.) – Amana Tool, manufacturers of carbide woodworking tools, today announced its In-Tech™ line of replaceable carbide insert knife router bits that bring industrial woodworking technology to portable router machines. The series comprises nine router bits that feature industrial-quality replaceable carbide knives instead of standard brazed carbide tips. In-Tech router bits are priced comparable to standard router bits but last up to four times longer, saving users money during the life of the tool as knives are replaced rather than the entire tool.

The In-Tech replaceable knives are made of a harder sub-micro grade carbide than those used on standard brazed router bits. This higher grade of carbide significantly increases the life of the router bit and makes the bits ideal for use in harder types of materials such as MDF and chipboard. By replacing worn knives instead of sharpening standard carbide tipped bits, router bit dimensions, cutting quality and accuracy remain constant during the life of the tool.

Amana Tool technical director, Frank Misiti, said, “We take great pride in our customer-focused innovation and are pleased to provide industrial-quality cutting tools and precision for the home user at an affordable price. With the unveiling of our In-Tech series, we’re now ensuring that our customers can achieve the best results possible while saving labor, time and money.”

In-Tech router bits have a 1/4” shank and are available in nine popular profiles The In-Tech router bits are sold individually starting at $16.88 USD, and replacement knives start at $3.08 USD through Amana Tool’s authorized distributors. For the location nearest you, visit www.amanatool.com.
