At a glance:
¼" Ø Shank router bit with a 12.7mm (½") radius
to profile a roundover shape in wood.
Application:
This router bit is used with a plunge router to profile the edge of wood to produce a rounded edge that has a 12,7mm radius
Definition:
The basic edge-forming bit, the corner-rounding bit rounds an edge to a given radius.
The tool is shouldered to cut a fillet. The cut can be used to ease edges, as a
simple profile, or as a part of a complex one. Also known as roundover, rounding
over, and quarter-round. If a smaller pilot bearing is used, a second shoulder can
be produced, in effect making the bit a beading bit.
Please ensure that you select a router bit with a
shank (shaft) size that will fit your router. If are in doubt, contact us and we
will confirm if it will work for you.

Shank dia. (d) |
Radius (R) |
6,35 mm (1/4 inch) |
12,7mm (1/2 inch) |
Explaining the Specifications:
-
(d) -> The diameter of the shank or shaft. This size should be the same
as the collet size of your router. Example: a small router is mostly
supplied with a quarter inch collet that is 6,35 mm inside diameter.
-
Common collet sizes:
- 1/4' collet = 6,35mm inside diameter
- 8mm collet = 8mm inside diameter
- 12mm collet = 12mm inside diameter
- 1/2' collet = 12,7mm inside diameter
- NOTE that the 12mm and the 12,7mm
(1/2') sizing are often misunderstood. 1/4 inch is not 6mm but exactly
6,35mm. A 6mm shank will not fit in a 1/4 in collet. Wrong sizes will either
break the collet or the bit will fall out.
