This 1/4" shank bit is offered in 5/16", 1/2", 9/16", and 5/8" cutter diameters, with cutter heights ranging from 1/2" to 1". Choose the size that matches your template and material thickness.

Rough-cut your workpiece about 1/8" oversize, then make a final light pass with the bearing following the template. Removing less material on the final pass reduces burning and extends the bit's edge life.

A flush-trim bit has its bearing at the tip, while this pattern bit has the bearing on the shank above the cutter. The top-bearing design lets you keep the template below the work. See the full flush-trim router bit collection.

The bearing is offered in 1/2" and 5/8" diameters. The bearing diameter is matched to the cutter so it follows the template accurately.

Template-routing duplicate parts, sign making, curved furniture components, and any shape you want to reproduce repeatedly. Pair it with our router templates for consistent results.

This top-bearing design is intended for a table-mounted router, because the pattern is placed below the workpiece. A router table gives you the best visibility and control for pattern routing.
