Freud 99-269 1-7/8" Entry & Interior Door Router Bit System with 1/2" Shank

The Freud 99-269 1-7/8-inch entry and interior door router bit system mills matched rail and stile profiles for true mortise and tenon joinery across custom interior and exterior doors. Engineered to accommodate standard 1-3/8-inch and 1-3/4-inch thick door assemblies, this patented matched cutter set features removable top rail bit components to construct custom long tenons for heavy architectural joinery. Outfitted with premium carbide cutting edges, a 1/2-inch heavy-duty precision shank, a 7/8-inch guide bearing, and red Perma-SHIELD non-stick thermal coating that resists heat buildup and gumming, it equips professional woodworkers, cabinetmakers, and millwork shops with gap-free joint precision across table-mounted routing stations.

Technical Specifications

Pro-Tip: When routing large door rails and stiles on a router table, make multiple progressive passes rather than removing full depth at once; multi-pass milling reduces motor strain, eliminates bit chatter, and guarantees flawless, splinter-free mortise and tenon joints.
