Create Perfect Miter Joints and Crisp Decorative Edges

Achieve flawless geometric precision in your woodworking projects with the Freud 40-104 1-11/32" Diameter 45-Degree Chamfer Router Bit. This essential joinery and detailing tool is designed to cut accurate 45-degree bevels, making it the ideal solution for constructing tight 90-degree corners for boxes, cabinetry, and multi-sided columns. Beyond joinery, it excels at easing sharp edges to create a professional, durable finish that adds character to any workpiece while maintaining clean, modern lines.

Built to withstand the rigors of a professional shop, the 40-104 is crafted with Freud’s industry-leading TiCo™ Hi-Density Carbide. This specialized micrograin formula delivers a razor-sharp cutting edge that stays sharp longer, even when routing abrasive materials like plywood, composites, and dense hardwoods. The bit is shielded by the exclusive Red Perma-SHIELD® Non-Stick Coating, which minimizes friction, prevents overheating, and resists pitch buildup. With a standard 1/4" shank and precision balancing, this bit ensures smooth, vibration-free operation in both hand-held and table-mounted routers.

Key Features

  • Precision Joinery: Cuts accurate 45° chamfers for perfect 90° miter joints and box construction.
  • Adjustable Profile: Easily control the size of the chamfer by adjusting the bit height or fence position.
  • TiCo™ Hi-Density Carbide: Proprietary blend ensures maximum edge retention and superior cut quality.
  • Perma-SHIELD® Coating: Non-stick red coating protects against heat, corrosion, and resin accumulation.
  • Versatile Application: Ideal for edge easing, decorative beveling, and 4-sided joinery.
  • Broad Compatibility: Safe for use on hand-held routers and table-mounted router systems.
  • Smooth Operation: Computer-balanced design reduces vibration for a chatter-free finish.

Pro-Tip: To create a perfect miter joint for a box or column, use this bit to chamfer the edges of two pieces of stock. When the two 45-degree chamfers are joined, they form a seamless 90-degree corner. Always test your setup on scrap pieces of the same thickness to ensure the chamfer depth leaves a sharp point without reducing the overall width of your workpiece.
