Designed for the professional craftsman, this bit profiles a graceful concave radius flanked by distinct fillets at the top and bottom. This \"Classical Cove\" shape is a staple in period furniture and architectural millwork, perfect for softening edges on tabletops, cabinet doors, and molding. With its robust 1\/2\" shank, this bit provides superior stability and reduced chatter, making it an excellent choice for use with both hand-held and table-mounted portable routers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFreud tools are engineered for precision and durability. The 38-262 features \u003cstrong\u003eTiCo™ Hi-Density Carbide\u003c\/strong\u003e, a proprietary formulation that delivers a sharper edge and stays sharp longer than standard carbide bits.
