Ensure your template is positioned correctly so that the bearing rides firmly on the edge. If trimming laminate, check the bearing frequently for glue buildup—a seized bearing can instantly burn your workpiece and damage the template.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Freud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51532505743671,"sku":"42-109","price":12.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2274\/5945\/files\/Freud_42-109_1_2_Inch_Diameter_Flush_Trim_Router_Bit_1_2_Inch_Shank_TiCo_Carbide_Pattern_and_Laminate_Trimming_Tool_1.webp?v=1778604723","url":"https:\/\/www.1toptools.com\/products\/freud-42-109-1-2-inch-diameter-flush-trim-router-bit-1-2-inch-shank-tico-carbide-pattern-and-laminate-trimming-tool","provider":"1 Top Tools","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
