Elevate your woodworking craftsmanship with the Freud 40-106 Chamfer Router Bit, a versatile powerhouse designed to create flawless 45-degree angles on any edge. While the chamfer profile may appear simple, it is an essential solution for complex joinery, easing sharp edges for a professional finish, and constructing multi-sided decorative projects. This bit is engineered to deliver a uniform chamfer that adds distinct character to your workpieces while maintaining the sharp, crisp geometric lines that high-end furniture and cabinetry demand.

Precision-manufactured for longevity, the Freud 40-106 features an industrial-grade carbide construction protected by Freud’s signature Perma-SHIELD® non-stick coating, which reduces heat buildup and pitch accumulation for a cleaner cut.

Whether you are routing dense hardwoods, softwoods, plywood, or composites, this bit provides the adjustability to vary your chamfer size simply by altering the bit height or fence position, giving you total creative control over every edge.
