Router Bit – Cove
TCT Router Bits
Each router bit features diamond ground, micro-grain tungsten carbide tipped blades. This tighter micro-grain structure means the blades offer long lasting hardness and superior edge retention. The body of each bit has been turned and then milled with uncompromising precision from a single piece of 4140 high tensile steel to give perfect balance for reduced vibration and therefore smoother cuts. 4140 steel has been chosen because of its toughness, high fatigue strength, and abrasion and impact resistance. The tungsten carbide tips are then brazed onto the bodies using induction to create an extremely strong joint that safely holds under the high stresses that occur when routing. The router bits are suitable for use on softwoods, hardwoods, veneers, laminates and composite materials.
Cove with Bearing Bits
Cove with bearing bits are used to produce simple decorative edges on furniture, doors and drawer fronts. The bearing guide allows you to produce moulding around curved edges, ensuring a consistent depth of cut in relation to the edge. By moulding the edge of a board, and then cutting this off with a table saw, custom wooden trim can be produced, ideal for edging laminate floors to a specific type of wood. Combining these bits with a matching ovolo or roundover bit, drop leaf joints can be created, for producing custom folding tables and worktops.
Superior Finish and Performance
The shearing angle of the cutting edges ensure they remain in constant contact with the workpiece to allow a smoother, slicing cut which eliminates tear-out and gives a mirror finish. The bits feature right hook angles which further enhances the cut due to the fast removal of chips. These bits feature an anti-kickback design which limits the feed rate of the material being cut to decrease the likelihood of a kickback, meaning each bit conforms to strict German DIN standards to ensure maximum operator safety. ©
