CMT Ovolo Router Bit (827.050.11) is a precision-crafted, 2-flute carbide-tipped profile bit designed to produce convex quarter-round bead profiles, decorative edge treatments, and classic ovolo details on furniture, cabinet components, and millwork. With a 13/16" cutting diameter, a 3/16" radius, and a compact 1/4" shank, this bit is engineered for use on handheld routers, router tables, and automated CNC routing systems. By simply adjusting cut height or depth, woodworkers can produce a wide range of single and double bead profiles and roundovers from one versatile tool - making it an exceptional value for furniture makers and finish carpenters alike.

Key Features

• Ovolo Profile Versatility - the bit's geometry lets you dial in a variety of bead, edgework, and vein profiles by adjusting cut height or depth, effectively replacing several specialty bits with a single tool.
• 2-Flute HW Carbide Construction - hard tungsten carbide cutting edges deliver clean, chip-free cuts through hardwoods, softwoods, sheet goods, and composite materials while maintaining sharpness over extended production runs.
• Right-Hand Rotation - designed for standard router spindle rotation, ensuring compatibility with the full range of handheld routers, router table setups, and automated router systems.
• 1/4" Shank - fits widely available 1/4" collets found on compact and full-size routers, making this bit accessible to hobbyists and professional woodworkers without specialized tooling.
• 15/32" Cutting Height - sufficient depth capacity to complete ovolo profiles and decorative edge work in a single pass on standard stock thicknesses, reducing setup time and improving consistency.
• Fence or Automated System Compatible - can be used freehand with a fence or integrated into CNC and automated router systems for repeatable, production-level results.

Why This Product

• One bit replaces multiple profile bits - by adjusting cut height or depth, this ovolo bit produces single beads, double beads, roundovers, and vein details, reducing tool inventory and changeover time for furniture makers and cabinetry shops.
• Designed for both handwork and production - compatibility with fences, router tables, and automated CNC routing systems means this bit transitions seamlessly from custom one-off furniture work to high-volume millwork production.
• Compact 1/4" shank provides broad machine compatibility - works with the vast majority of compact and mid-size routers already in most woodworking shops, requiring no additional collet adapters or specialty tooling.
• Hard carbide (HW) material at a 13/16" diameter keeps cuts precise on demanding materials including solid hardwood and sheet goods, making it a practical choice for decorative furniture edges and classical architectural molding profiles.
