Up cut end mills are the best choice for most standard milling applications. The up cut direction can leave behind a minimally rough top surface edge. Up cut endmills are great for all standard milling and material removal.
These bits pull the wood chips up and away from the tool path which helps prevent tool breakage and extends the life of the bit. If a particular finish is required for your project, use a down cut or compression cut end mill for the final pass.
