Achieve Perfect Template Duplication: Flawless Trimming with Top-Bearing Precision

For demanding template work, sign creation, and laminate trimming, the Freud 50-103 Top Bearing Flush Trim Bit delivers the speed and surgical precision professionals require. The top-mounted bearing tracks smoothly along your pattern or template, while the TiCo™ Hi-Density Carbide cutting edge shaves the workpiece material flush. This design is perfect for any application where the pattern is placed on top of the workpiece or when routing intricate grooves and lettering. Experience clean, chip-free results across virtually any wood-based material.

Key Features

  • Precision Template Trimming: The top-mounted bearing accurately follows templates, ensuring the finished piece perfectly matches the pattern for flawless duplication and flush trimming.
  • Wide Material Compatibility: Cuts all common materials, including hardwood, softwood, plywood, composites, and laminates with ease.
  • Exceptional Durability: Manufactured with Freud's TiCo™ Hi-Density Carbide and twin cutters for an extended cutting life and consistently smooth finishes.
  • Friction and Pitch Resistance: Protected by Freud’s exclusive Perma-SHIELD® Coating, which resists heat and gumming while reducing friction, allowing the bit to stay sharper longer.
  • Versatile Router Use: Designed for maximum flexibility, this bit performs excellently when used in both hand-held and table-mounted routers.
  • Optimal Specifications: Features a 5/8" cutting diameter, a 9/16" carbide height, and a common 1/4" shank for a wide range of tasks.
