Freud 38-100 1-1/16" Roman Ogee Quadra-Cut Router Bit with 1/4" Shank
The Freud 38-100 1-1/16-inch Roman Ogee router bit routs classic decorative "S" curve profiles along cabinet doors, tabletops, architectural millwork, and custom furniture edges. Engineered with Freud's patented Quadra-Cut 4-cutter design featuring two upward and two downward shearing carbide edges, this precision woodworking bit eliminates tear-out to produce a glass-smooth finish that requires zero secondary sanding. Outfitted with premium high-density carbide construction, a 1/4-inch precision shank, a 1/2-inch bearing guide for template tracking, and a red Perma-SHIELD non-stick coating that resists resin buildup and heat friction, it equips professional cabinetmakers, woodworkers, and trim carpenters with superior profile accuracy across portable hand-held routers and table-mounted routing stations.
Best Used For:
- Custom Cabinetry and Raised Panel Edging: Milling classic architectural ogee details along cabinet door stiles, rails, and drawer fronts.
- Fine Furniture and Tabletop Shaping: Adding decorative edge profiles to solid hardwood tabletops, desk perimeters, and decorative wooden plaques.
- Architectural Millwork and Trim Detailing: Crafting custom picture frames, wainscoting caps, and decorative molding profiles with splinter-free clarity.
Key Performance & Safety Features
- Quadra-Cut 4-Cutter Technology: Four independent cutting edges shear both upward and downward simultaneously, delivering a polished, tear-out-free cut in difficult grain patterns.
- High-Density Carbide Construction: Premium Freud carbide grade maintains razor sharpness significantly longer than standard steel or low-grade carbide bits.
- Perma-SHIELD Non-Stick Coating: Thermal-resistant coating prevents wood pitch, resin, and glue accumulation while reducing frictional heat buildup.
- Integrated Guide Bearing: 1/2-inch precision bearing follows templates, fences, or straight edges for consistent profile depth and curved contour control.
- Standard 1/4" Precision Shank: Compatible with virtually all hand-held portable routers and table-mounted woodworking routers supporting 1/4-inch collets.
- Optimized RPM Balance: Dynamically balanced body rated up to 18,000 RPM for vibration-free operation under high feed rates.

Pro-Tip: When routing intricate ogee profiles on solid hardwoods, make two or three shallow passes rather than removing the full profile depth in a single pass; multi-pass routing eliminates burning on the ogee curve and preserves the razor sharpness of your Quadra-Cut carbide edges.
