Freud 30-112 3/8 Inch Radius Cove Decorative Edging Router Bit
The Freud 30-112 is a 1-1/4-inch overall diameter cove decorative edging router bit engineered to shape smooth 3/8-inch radius concave profiles on furniture perimeters, cabinetry, and custom millwork. Built with a heavy-duty 1/2-inch shank and an upward shear cutting geometry, this 2-cutter tool slices wood fibers cleanly to eliminate grain tearout and surface splintering. Tipped with TiCo™ Hi-Density Micrograin Carbide and protected by a heat-resistant Perma-SHIELD® non-stick coating, it operates safely at speeds up to 18,000 RPM across solid hardwoods, softwoods, plywood, and composites in CNC machinery, router tables, or handheld routers.
Best Used For:
- Architectural Millwork & Trim Molding: Routing smooth 3/8-inch concave cove profiles on solid hardwood baseboards, casings, and crown trim.
- Furniture & Cabinet Edge Detailing: Milling precise decorative concave borders and inverted radiused edges onto solid wood tabletop panels and cabinet face frames.
- Rule Joint Construction: Shaping matching concave profiles on drop-leaf table edges and fine furniture joints in natural timber and composite sheet goods.
Key Performance & Safety Features
- Upward Shear Angle Geometry: Precision-milled shear angle slices wood fibers with low drag to prevent grain tearout and surface burn marks.
- TiCo™ Hi-Density Micrograin Carbide: Proprietary titanium-cobalt carbide formulation maintains razor sharpness under continuous high-speed production.
- Perma-SHIELD® Non-Stick Coating: Protective red fluoropolymer coating guards against thermal friction, pitch accumulation, and rust corrosion.
- Precision Pilot Ball Bearing: Includes a 1/2-inch outer diameter steel guide bearing for smooth, uniform edge tracking along straight or curved workpieces.
- Rigid 1/2-Inch Steel Shank: Heavy-gauge shank diameter minimizes chatter, vibration, and cutter deflection under heavy mechanical loads.
- Computer-Balanced Anti-Vibration Body: Precision body balancing ensures vibration-free operation at rotational speeds up to 18,000 RPM.
