Why the 14-Degree Cutting Angle Matters for Cleaner Cuts
The SL-106’s 14-degree cutting angle isn’t just a number—it’s the secret behind its smooth performance when working with softer metals like aluminum. Think of it like slicing bread with a serrated knife instead of a dull butter knife; the angle helps the burr cut through material more cleanly and quickly, reducing the buildup of clogged chips. This means less stops to clean your tool and a better overall finish on your workpiece, making your job easier and your results professional.
