Trimming Router Bits


Cut layers of material flush to one another or make cuts along a template.
Carbide-tipped high-speed steel bits are for use on wood and plastic laminate.
Use carbide bits for longer tool life and faster cutting speeds than high-speed steel. Micrograin carbide bits provide superior wear resistance, long tool life, and a cleaner finish than bits made of other materials. Diamond-tipped carbide bits are for use on aluminum and composites.
Ball-bearing pilots guide the bit for accurate cuts and produce less friction than solid pilots for smoother operation.
Pilot location describes the position of the pilot when the bit is used for hand routing. The pilot location is reversed when using the bit with a router table. Bottom-pilot bits trim material from an upper layer of the workpiece so that it is flush with the layer below. In addition to flush trimming, they can be used to cut along a template placed below the workpiece. Top-pilot bits cut a lower layer of the workpiece flush to the layer above. In addition to flush trimming, they can be used for pattern cutting with a template placed above the workpiece.
Bits with straight flutes are for general purpose use. They quickly remove material, leaving a rough finish.
Bits with spiral flutes leave a smoother finish than straight-flute bits and make plunge cuts more easily (for plunge-cutting bits). Bits with upward and downward chip removal are also known as compression bits. Acting like scissors, they move chips away from the top and bottom edges of the cut for a smooth finish on both.
Choose a bit with one flute for a faster cut; bits with more flutes produce a smoother finish.
Bits with a plunge cut type let you cut directly into the workpiece from above. Other bits are best for operations where the peripheral teeth do most of the work such as trimming, contouring, and finishing.
Bits with an overhang cutoff edge remove most of the excess material from the edge of workpieces such as countertops and sink cutouts, but they leave some material leftover for precise trimming after the installation. This process minimizes the risk of chipping laminate during installation and produces a clean, professional finish.

Flush-Trimming and Chamfer Router Bits



Create straight and chamfer cuts on countertops or other plastic laminate material without changing bits. For flush trimming, hold the bit at a height where only the straight cutting edge contacts the workpiece. For chamfer cuts, use the angled cutting edge. A ball-bearing pilot guides the bit for accurate cuts and produces low friction for smooth operation. The straight flutes quickly remove material and leave a rough finish. These bits cannot make plunge cuts, so they're best for operations where the peripheral teeth do most of the work such as trimming, contouring, and finishing.
Carbide-tipped high-speed steel bits provide a longer tool life and faster cutting speeds than standard high-speed steel bits.
Micrograin carbide bits provide superior wear resistance, long tool life, and a cleaner finish than bits made of other materials.

Router Bits for Wood Joining
Create shapes that fit together to form wood joints commonly used to build doors and frames.
Rabbet and slotting bits have a ball-bearing pilot that guides the bit for accurate cuts and produces less friction than solid pilots for smoother operation. Rabbet bits with 1 3/8" cutting diameter include interchangeable bearings in a range of sizes to adjust the rabbet width.

Corner-Rounding Router Bits






Choose from bits that form a variety of shapes along the edges of your workpiece.
Carbide-tipped steel bits are for use on wood.
Bits with a ball-bearing pilot operate smoothly thanks to the pilot, which decreases friction and guides the bit for accurate cuts. Other bits do not have a pilot, so guide your router along a straight edge when hand routing to make accurate cuts.

Chamfer Router Bits


These bits make chamfer, bevel, and other angled cuts in wood.
Use carbide-tipped high-speed steel bits on wood. They're sturdier than carbide bits and can be used for hand routing. A ball-bearing pilot helps position the bit for straight cuts.

Router Bit Bearings

Replace a damaged bearing in a ball-bearing-piloted router bit. These bearings have fitted sleeves to protect your workpiece from damage.
For technical drawings and 3-D models, click on a part number.
Decorative Panel Router Bits


Remove large amounts of material on flat surfaces with these bits to create raised panels with decorative edges. They are often used in cabinetry and furniture making. Since they’re made from solid carbide, they have a longer tool life and faster cutting speeds than high-speed steel bits.
Ball-bearing pilots guide the bit for accurate cuts and produce less friction than solid pilots for smoother operation. For bits without a pilot, guide your router along a straight edge when hand routing to make accurate cuts.

Router Bits for Grooves




Carve grooves in wood and plastic laminate. These bits have straight flutes that quickly remove material, leaving a rough finish. Made of carbide-tipped high-speed steel, they provide a longer tool life and faster cutting speeds than standard high-speed steel bits.
Bits with a top pilot let you flush trim, cutting a lower layer of the workpiece flush to the layer above. They can also be used for pattern cutting with a template. They have a ball-bearing pilot that guides the bit for accurate cuts. All other bits do not have a pilot, so guide your router along a straight edge when hand routing to make accurate cuts.
