The Oma Router Bit set featuring 2 cm and 3 cm F Ogee profiles offers outstanding performance on marble, granite, quartz, and engineered stone. Here's why it's worth the investment. Firstly, while most router bits today are about 2 3/4 inches in diameter, Oma bits are almost 3 1/2 inches, providing 30% more diamond diameter than cheaper profile bits. This larger diameter changes the surface feet per minute of profiling, allowing Oma bits to cut more effectively. Secondly, these bits are made in Italy by OMA, with 100% quality control. This ensures every bit meets the high - standards for optimal performance. Thirdly, the Pos 1 bits are crafted from solid brass. They are designed to last for years, and OMA offers replacement segment kits that include original diamond segments, washers, bolts, and bearings. You can easily replace the segments and get a brand - new bit at 40% of the original cost. Fourthly, Oma bits have a center water feed. This continuous water supply prevents accidental 'dry cuts' that could damage the bit or the stone. Fifthly, they don't experience thermic stress from the welding process, guaranteeing a long life, even wear, and a smooth finish. The Pos 1 bits leave the stone smooth and chip - free, ready for Pos 2 profile bits or hand - polishing. You'll also save 30% - 50% over a year compared to smaller - diameter bits on the market. The OMA Prodiam Pos 2 profile router bits use diamond brazed technology. They can be used as Pos 1 on marble, limestone, and travertine, and as Pos 2 after Oma Pos 1 on granite, quartz, and other stones. With a steel core and brazed diamonds, they create the perfect shape, provide a long - lasting Pos 2, and set the main profile for Pos 3 - 6 OMA polishing wheels. The OMA Extradiam Pos 3 profile router bits are extra - fine diamond profile wheels that start the polishing process on all stone types. Without a bearing, they bridge profiling and polishing. Made with a high - tolerance steel core and high - density extra - fine abrasive diamond powder, they achieve an excellent finish. Recommended RPM is 2500 - 3500, with 3000 being optimum. The OMA True Life polishing wheels use patented sintered and electroplating processes for maximum polishing results and long life. They are solid, match the metal diamond profile wheels 2 and 3, and can be used on all stone types like granite, marble, and quartz. Recommended polishing speed is 2500 - 6500 RPM, with 3000 RPM giving the best results. All Oma bits are of pure quality, made in Italy with full quality control, and have a center water feed.
Using the Oma Router Bit Set: First, select the appropriate bit according to the stone type and the processing stage. For example, use the Pos 1 F Ogee bits for initial profiling on most stones. When installing the bit, make sure it's properly tightened. Connect the center water feed to a water source before starting the operation to keep the bit cool and prevent dry cuts. For the OMA Prodiam Pos 2 bits, use them as Pos 1 on softer stones like marble or as Pos 2 after the Oma Pos 1 on harder stones. When using the OMA Extradiam Pos 3 bits, set your machine to the recommended RPM of 2500 - 3500, with 3000 being the best. These bits start the polishing process, so take your time to achieve a smooth finish. For the OMA True Life polishing wheels, set the polishing speed between 2500 - 6500 RPM, with 3000 RPM for optimal results. They'll pick up where the previous wheels left off and give your stone a ready - to - install finish. Maintenance: After each use, clean the bits and wheels thoroughly to remove any stone dust or debris. Check the diamond segments on the Pos 1 bits regularly. If they're worn out, use the replacement segment kits provided by OMA. For the OMA True Life wheels, store them in a dry place to prevent rusting. Remember, always follow the safety guidelines provided by your machine manufacturer when using these Oma products.
