Corner Rounding Router Bit

This an affordable router bit range that is well supported throughout South Africa. All our Tork Craft router bits are Tungsten tipped. Tork Craft is a well-known BRAND in most retail stores.

At a glance:

¼" Ø Shank router bit with a 4,8 mm (1/4") 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 4,8 mm radius. The 6.35 mm shank should fit most small routers.

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.

Features

Corner round profile Designed to round over sharp edges for a smoother and more decorative finish.
Tungsten carbide cutting edge Helps deliver clean, accurate cuts in suitable woodworking materials.
HSS body and shank Strong body and shank construction for reliable router bit performance.
1/2 inch bearing Allows controlled edge-following when routing along a workpiece edge.
Compact profile size The 3/16 inch radius is ideal for smaller rounded edges and fine finishing detail.

Benefits

Improves appearance: Creates a professional rounded edge that makes woodworking projects look more complete.
Softens sharp edges: Helps remove harsh corners from shelves, boards, frames and cabinet parts.
Consistent results: The bearing helps guide the bit for a more even profile along the edge.
Useful finishing bit: A great router accessory for furniture making, trim work and general woodworking.
Controlled cutting: Designed to provide smooth and accurate cutting when used correctly with a router.

Application

Rounding over timber edges.
Decorative edge profiling on woodwork.
Furniture, shelving and cabinet finishing.
Frame, trim and moulding work.
DIY, carpentry, craft and woodworking projects.
Use with router machines only.

Extra Information

The CKP1201 creates a 3/16 inch radius corner round profile.
The bit has a 1/4 inch shank and should only be used in a compatible router collet.
Ensure that at least 3/4 of the shank length is inserted into the router collet.
Do not bottom-out the bit in the collet. Leave approximately 1/8 inch clearance from the bottom of the collet.
When removing larger amounts of stock, route in two or more passes for better control and finish.
For outside edges, feed the router anti-clockwise. For inside edges or frames, feed clockwise when using a portable router.

Pro Tips

Test the profile on a scrap piece of the same material before routing the final workpiece.
Make shallow passes rather than trying to remove too much material in one cut.
Keep the router base flat and steady against the workpiece to avoid uneven edges.
Make sure the bearing is clean and spins freely before use.
For the best finish, move the router smoothly and avoid stopping in one place while cutting.

How to Use

Make sure the router is switched off and unplugged before fitting the bit.
Insert at least 3/4 of the shank length into the router collet, leaving about 1/8 inch clearance from the bottom.
Tighten the collet securely according to the router manufacturer’s instructions.
Set the cutting depth to achieve the required 3/16 inch round-over profile.
Secure the workpiece firmly before routing.
Start the router and allow it to reach full speed before contacting the workpiece.
Feed the router steadily in the correct direction and avoid forcing the bit.
Switch off the router and wait for the bit to stop completely before removing it from the workpiece.

Shank dia. (d)	Radius (R)
6,35 mm (1/4")	4,8 mm (3/16")

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.
TCT = Tungsten Carbide Tipped
Allways stay in the MAX Speed range of router bit

Safety

Always use the correct router bit for the job.
Using any tool can be dangerous when incorrect procedures are followed.
Always wear eye and ear protection when using a router.
Wear suitable gloves when handling the bit, as the cutting edges are sharp.
Follow all safety and use instructions supplied with your router.
Never use router bits that are dull, damaged or visibly worn.
The bit can become hot after use; allow it to cool before handling.
Do not force the bit or overload the router.
Use a router table and fence whenever possible, especially with larger diameter bits.
Use reduced speeds for larger diameter bits and always follow the router manufacturer’s speed guidance.
Failure to follow safety instructions and warnings can result in serious bodily injury.
