Product Description
CMT 800.511.11 5-Piece Complete Kitchen Set is a professional-grade router bit collection engineered for drawer and door makers who demand precision and versatility from a single kit. Featuring a 1/2 in. shank and carbide-tipped cutting edges, this comprehensive set gives woodworkers and cabinet makers everything they need to produce raised panel doors, fitted rails and stiles, seamless glue joints, and sturdy drawer assemblies - all from one coordinated collection of five router bits. Whether you are outfitting a dedicated router table or working with a handheld router on a production run of kitchen cabinetry, this set is built to handle solid hardwood, softwood, sheet goods, and composite panel materials with consistent, repeatable results.
Key Features
- 5-piece complete kitchen bit collection - provides a raised panel bit, rail bit, stile bit, glue joint bit, and drawer lock bit in a single kit, eliminating the need to source compatible profiles separately and ensuring every cut works in harmony with the next.
- 1/2 in. shank - the larger shank diameter reduces vibration and flex during heavy routing passes, resulting in cleaner cuts and improved dimensional accuracy on kitchen door and drawer components.
- 2-flute carbide-tipped (HW) cutting edges - hard metal carbide tips maintain a sharp edge longer than high-speed steel, reducing the frequency of sharpening intervals and keeping profiles crisp across extended production runs.
- Right-hand (RH) rotation - standard right-hand rotation is compatible with the vast majority of fixed-base routers, plunge routers, and router tables, making this set straightforward to deploy without special tooling setups.
- Profile type C - a coordinated profile geometry across all five bits ensures that mating pieces fit together accurately, which is critical for raised panel door assemblies that must close flush and seat squarely in their frames.
- Professional kit format with 3 sets to choose from - the set is designed specifically for drawer and door makers, so every included bit addresses a real production need rather than padding the kit with general-purpose profiles that do not contribute to kitchen cabinetry work.
Why This Product
- Rather than assembling a matched set of kitchen bits one at a time - and risking profile mismatches between rail, stile, and raised panel cuts - this kit delivers five purpose-selected bits that are engineered to work together as a coordinated system for cabinetry production.
- The combination of a raised panel bit, rail bit, stile bit, glue joint bit, and drawer lock bit means a single purchase covers the full range of cuts needed for complete kitchen door and drawer construction, from frame joinery to panel decoration to drawer assembly.
- The 1/2 in. shank is the preferred choice for router table work on dense hardwoods and composite panels commonly used in kitchen cabinetry, providing the stability and mass needed to manage the larger cutting diameters these profiles require.
- With right-hand rotation and broad material compatibility spanning solid hardwood, softwood, plywood, MDF, chipboard, laminates, melamine, and plastic, this set adapts to the full range of substrates a kitchen and cabinet shop encounters in day-to-day production.

Frequently Asked Questions
What cuts can I make with this 5-piece kitchen set?
The set includes five dedicated router bits for kitchen cabinetry work: a raised panel bit, a rail bit, a stile bit, a glue joint bit, and a drawer lock bit. Together these profiles cover raised panel door construction, fitted frame joinery, glued-up panel edges, and interlocking drawer box assembly.
Is the 1/2 in. shank required, or can I use a 1/4 in. collet?
All five bits in this set are built with a 1/2 in. shank. You will need a router or router table equipped with a 1/2 in. collet to use them. The 1/2 in. shank is intentional for this type of kit because the larger profiles used in kitchen door and drawer work benefit from the added rigidity and reduced vibration that a larger shank diameter provides.
What materials can these router bits cut?
The carbide-tipped (HW) cutting edges are suitable for solid hardwood, softwood, plywood, MDF, chipboard, laminates, melamine, and plastic - covering the full range of substrates commonly used in kitchen cabinet and door production.
Are these bits compatible with a CNC routing machine?
Yes. In addition to handheld routers and router tables, these bits are compatible with CNC routing machines, making this set a practical option for shops that mix manual and automated production workflows.
