cuts aluminum, but not as well as you'd think Jan 22, 2008 By dokein
I bought the Metal-Cutting XBit to freehand cutting in 0.125" sheet aluminum and found it workable, but barely. The bit could not penetrate the plate to start a cut in the middle of the sheet, requring me to start every cut with a power drill instead. After less than an inch of travel, the bit was clogged with melted aluminum chips. After cleaning the bit with an icepick, I sprayed the surface of the aluminum with WD-40 for cooling and lubrication. By spraying the work area regularly, I was able avoid clogging the bit for several hours of subsequent use.

NOT CARBIDE! Jul 30, 2008 By JimJoMac
The Rotozip website specifies that this bit is made of high-speed steel, not carbide! I called Rotozip and they verified that it is indeed high-speed steel.

Amazon should correct the advertising.

Roto Zip and anything to do with it are the greatest things since sliced bread. This transaction and all my RotoZip transactions are fantastic. I'll buy again from this seller.
