Product Description
CMT Ogee with Fillet Router Bit with Bearing - 1 3/8" Diameter, 1/2" Shank brings classic decorative edge profiles within reach for woodworkers crafting traditional furniture, cabinetry, and millwork. This CMT bit combines a graceful ogee curve with a crisp flat fillet, producing the layered, stepped profiles that define period-style furniture edges and door frames. Built from the highest quality tungsten carbide and finished with CMT's trademarked orange PTFE non-stick coating, this router bit is engineered for durability, precision, and clean results in solid hardwood, softwood, and sheet goods. The integrated bearing guide keeps your cuts consistent pass after pass, making it equally at home in a handheld router, router table, or CNC routing setup.
Key Features
- Highest quality tungsten carbide cutting edges - resists wear during extended use in hardwood and composite materials, maintaining sharpness longer and reducing the frequency of resharpening.
- Orange PTFE non-stick coating - prevents pitch and resin buildup on the bit body, reduces heat generation during cutting, guards against corrosion, and extends overall tool life.
- Ogee with fillet profile - produces a classic combination decorative edge featuring both a flowing S-curve and a flat fillet step, ideal for traditional furniture and cabinet door edges.
- Integrated bearing guide - rides along the workpiece edge to control the depth of cut precisely, keeping profiles consistent without the need for fences on a handheld router.
- 2-flute design with right-hand rotation - delivers smooth, balanced cutting action that reduces vibration and produces cleaner surface finishes on the routed profile.
- 1/2" shank diameter - provides a rigid, stable connection in the router collet, minimizing deflection and chatter for more accurate, safer cuts.
- 3/16" radius ogee curve - gives the profile its characteristic decorative sweep, well-suited to furniture rail and stile edges, tabletop perimeters, and architectural trim.
Why This Product
- The ogee-and-fillet profile is one of the most recognized traditional decorative edges in furniture making - this bit lets woodworkers recreate that classic look in a single router pass (or multiple controlled passes) without custom grinding or stacked setups.
- The PTFE non-stick coating directly addresses one of the most common frustrations with carbide router bits - resin and pitch adhesion that causes burning and degraded cut quality - keeping the bit performing cleanly for longer.
- The 1/2" shank pairs with the bearing guide to give users maximum stability and control when running decorative profiles, particularly important when working with challenging grain patterns in solid hardwood.
- The manufacturer specifically recommends multiple passes for this type of profile machining, and this bit's carbide construction and anti-buildup coating make incremental depth-of-cut routing practical and efficient.

Frequently Asked Questions
What profile does this bit produce?
This bit produces an ogee-with-fillet profile - a combination of a flowing S-shaped ogee curve and a flat fillet step. The ogee portion has a 3/16" radius, and the full cutting height is 1/2", making it well suited for traditional furniture edges, cabinet door frames, and decorative trim work.
Is this bit compatible with a handheld router, or does it require a router table?
This bit is compatible with both handheld routers and router tables, as well as CNC routing machines. The integrated bearing guide helps control the cut along the workpiece edge in all setups. Because ogee-and-fillet profiling can be demanding, the manufacturer recommends multiple lighter passes rather than a single full-depth cut for best results.
What shank size does this bit use, and what router collets will it fit?
This bit uses a 1/2" shank diameter, which fits any router with a 1/2" collet. The 1/2" shank provides a more rigid and stable connection compared to 1/4" shank bits, reducing deflection and vibration during profiling cuts.
What is the purpose of the orange PTFE coating on CMT router bits?
The orange PTFE non-stick coating prevents pitch and resin from adhering to the bit body during use. This reduces heat buildup, protects the bit from corrosion, and helps maintain cutting performance over time - extending the working life of the bit compared to uncoated alternatives.
