At a glance:
½" Ø Shank router bit with a 6,35mm (¼") 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 6,35mm 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.
Features
- Corner round profile Designed to round over sharp edges for a smoother and more decorative finish.
- Tungsten carbide cutting edge Helps deliver smooth, accurate cuts in suitable woodworking materials.
- HSS body and shank Strong body and shank construction for dependable router bit performance.
- 1/2 inch bearing Allows controlled edge-following when routing along a workpiece edge.
- 1/2 inch shank design Offers improved rigidity and support in compatible router machines.
Benefits
- Improves appearance: Creates a professional rounded edge that gives woodworking projects a more finished look.
- Softens sharp corners: Helps remove harsh edges from boards, shelves, frames and cabinet parts.
- Consistent results: The bearing helps guide the bit for a more even round-over profile along the edge.
- Better routing stability: The 1/2 inch shank helps reduce vibration when used correctly in a compatible router.
- Useful finishing bit: A practical router accessory for furniture making, trim work and general woodworking.
Application
- Rounding over timber edges.
- Decorative edge profiling on woodworking projects.
- Furniture, shelving and cabinet finishing.
- Frame, trim and moulding work.
- DIY, carpentry, craft and woodworking projects.
- Use with router machines only.
Extra Information
- The CKP1206 creates a 1/4 inch radius corner round profile.
- The bit has a 1/2 inch shank and should only be used in a compatible 1/2 inch 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.
- Use shallow passes rather than removing too much material in one cut for a cleaner finish.
- 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.
- Use a router table and fence whenever possible for better control and repeatable results.
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 1/4 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) |
| 12,7 mm (1/2 inch) | 6.35mm (1/4 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') are often misunderstood and 1/4 inch is not 6mm but e
xactly
6,35mm. A 6mm shank will not fit in a 1/4 in collet. You will either
break the collet or the bit will fall out.
- (D) -> The actual width that the cutter will cut, groove, or profile.
- (B) -> The lenth of the cutting edge of the router bit
- (L) -> The total length of the router bit
- TCT = Tungsten Carbide Tipped
- Allways stay in the MAX Speed range of router bit
