Very Fragile Bits

These bits cut nice but they are fragile. I bought my first one a few weeks ago. I made several cuts with it but the bit ended up breaking at the shank. I summed that up to a machine malfunction and purchased another one. I started making my first pass with it and about 6 inches in a chip of aluminum got stuck in the flute so I stopped the machine to clear the obstruction. Once again the bit snapped off at the shank and I wasn't even cutting anything. I'll definitely be switching to a different brand. $40 in bits wasted cutting a $20 part.
