Freud 39-101 3/4 Inch Diameter Cove Bead Groove Router Bit 1/4 Inch Shank TiCo Carbide Tipped Decorative Edging Tool for Cabinetry Furniture and CNC

Add Sophisticated Architectural Depth and Timeless Decorative Profiles to Every Project

Elevate the visual impact of your custom furniture and millwork with the Freud 39-101 3/4" Diameter Cove and Bead Groove Router Bit. This versatile tool is specifically engineered to produce a classical cove and bead profile that adds immediate architectural depth to cabinet doors, drawer fronts, and moldings. By plunging directly into the face of your workpiece, you can create intricate surface grooves that simulate high-end panel construction, or pair the bit with an edge guide or router fence to craft elegant decorative edge profiles on tabletops and furniture frames.

Built for industrial-grade performance, the 39-101 features Freud’s signature TiCo™ Hi-Density Carbide and a specialized shear angle that slices through wood fibers like a hand plane. This advanced cutting geometry ensures glass-smooth, burn-free results while virtually eliminating tear-out, even in delicate or figured grains. Protected by the iconic Red Perma-SHIELD® Non-Stick Coating, the bit resists heat buildup, corrosion, and resin accumulation, extending the life of the tool and maintaining precision across hardwoods, softwoods, plywood, and abrasive composites.

Key Features

• Classical Decorative Profile: Creates a signature cove and bead shape ideal for ornamental furniture and millwork.

Specifications

Pro-Tip: When routing decorative surface grooves, always perform a test cut on a scrap piece of the same material to verify the depth of the plunge. For the cleanest finish in hardwoods, maintain a steady feed rate and take two shallow passes rather than one heavy cut; this reduces the risk of wood burning and ensures a flawless, paint-ready profile.
