The CMT 800.516.11 3-Piece Cove Kitchen Set is a complete router bit set engineered for crafting professional-quality raised panel cabinet doors with a classic cove profile. Designed for use with a 1/2 in. shank router, this three-piece collection pairs two teeth of precision-ground tungsten carbide cutting geometry with CMT's signature orange non-stick PTFE coating, making it an efficient and economical choice for cabinetmakers, woodworkers, and shop professionals working with rail-and-stile door construction.

Key Features

• 3-Piece Cove Kitchen Set (Rail, Stile, and Raised Panel Bits) - all three bits needed for complete rail-and-stile cove cabinet door production are included in a single set, eliminating the need to source each bit separately and simplifying workflow.
• Orange Non-Stick PTFE Coating - prevents the bit from heating up during cuts, reduces pitch and resin buildup on cutting edges, protects against corrosion, and extends overall tool life so you spend less time cleaning and more time cutting.
• Highest Quality Tungsten Carbide Cutting Tips (HW) - carbide tips are sourced from premium materials and machined from bar stock steel, delivering long-lasting sharpness and consistent cut quality across hardwood, softwood, and engineered sheet goods.
• 1/2 in. Shank Diameter - the larger shank reduces vibration and deflection compared to smaller shank sizes, resulting in smoother cuts, improved accuracy, and a better surface finish on cove profiles.
• Right-Hand (RH) Rotation - standard right-hand rotation is compatible with the vast majority of fixed-base and plunge routers and router tables, ensuring broad machine compatibility right out of the box.
• D+B Profile Combination - the matched D and B profile pairing ensures that the rail, stile, and raised panel bits work together as a coordinated system, producing tight-fitting, gap-free joints on finished cabinet door frames.
• 2-Tooth Cutting Geometry - a 2-tooth configuration on each bit provides the chip clearance needed for smooth stock removal in both solid hardwood and softer materials, reducing tear-out on finished surfaces.

Why This Product

• One set covers the full cove door-making process - with a matched cove rail bit, cove stile bit, and cove raised panel bit all in one set, you have every cutter required to mill complete cabinet doors from raw stock without switching between incompatible profiles.
• Economical path to professional cove cabinet doors - purchasing a coordinated 3-piece set is a cost-effective alternative to sourcing individual bits, and the matched profile geometry ensures the pieces fit together correctly the first time.
• PTFE coating keeps bits performing longer - by actively resisting heat, pitch, and resin adhesion, the orange non-stick coating reduces the frequency of bit cleaning and sharpening, lowering the total cost of ownership over time.
• Compatible with handheld routers, router tables, and CNC routing machines - the 1/2 in. shank and right-hand rotation make this set a versatile fit across a wide range of common workshop setups, from handheld plunge routing to full CNC production environments.
