Product Description
CMT 866.602.11 Solid Surface Rounding Over Bowl Bit by CMT is a precision router bit engineered specifically for undermount sink and bowl installations in solid surface countertop work. With a 2 in. cutting diameter, a 1/2 in. radius profile, and a 15 deg. beveled angle, this bit trims and shapes all wood and wood-based materials with accuracy - making it the go-to choice for kitchen and bathroom countertop fabrication. Designed for use on hand-held routers with a 1/2 in. shank, it delivers clean, consistent profiles where the countertop meets the sink bowl, eliminating the guesswork from undermount applications.
Key Features
- 15 deg. Beveled Angle Profile - creates the signature angled edge required for undermount bowl and sink installations, producing a professional, factory-quality junction between countertop and bowl without additional finishing steps.
- 2 in. Cutting Diameter with 1/2 in. Radius - provides a broad cutting sweep and smooth rounded profile in a single pass, reducing the time and effort needed to shape solid surface edges on countertops.
- 1 1/4 in. Cutting Height - accommodates countertop material up to 1 in. thick, giving fabricators the clearance needed to complete a full-depth profile cut in standard solid surface stock.
- HW (Hardwood/Hard Material) Carbide Construction - the carbide-grade tooling stands up to repeated cutting through dense solid surface materials, extending the useful life of the bit in high-production countertop environments.
- 2-Flute (2-Tooth) Design - dual cutting edges balance chip load and produce a smoother surface finish compared to single-flute alternatives, reducing sanding and cleanup time after routing.
- Right-Hand (RH) Rotation - compatible with the standard rotation direction of virtually all hand-held routers, ensuring safe, predictable cutting behavior without any modification to your equipment.
- 1/2 in. Shank - the large-diameter shank provides maximum rigidity in the collet, minimizing vibration and deflection during cuts to keep profiles consistent and clean throughout the entire cut path.
Why This Product
- Purpose-built for undermount bowl work - unlike general-purpose roundover bits, this bit is specifically designed for the undermount application where countertop and sink bowl surfaces must meet at a precise 15 deg. beveled edge, eliminating improvised setups or multi-bit workflows.
- Handles countertop stock up to 1 in. thick - with a maximum material thickness rating of 1 in. and a 1 1/4 in. cutting height, fabricators can work through full-thickness solid surface slabs in a single pass rather than making multiple shallow cuts.
- Compatible with solid surface countertop materials used in kitchens and bathrooms - this bit is suited to the wide range of solid surface substrates found in residential and commercial countertop fabrication, making it a versatile addition to any countertop shop's routing toolkit.
- Designed for hand-held router use - the 1/2 in. shank and right-hand rotation make this bit straightforward to mount and run on standard portable routers, keeping setup simple for on-site countertop fabrication or shop-based production work.

Frequently Asked Questions
What type of router is this bit designed to be used with?
This bit is designed for use on hand-held routers. It uses a 1/2 in. shank and right-hand rotation, which is standard on the vast majority of portable hand-held router models.
What is the maximum material thickness this bit can handle?
The maximum material thickness rating for this bit is 1 in. The cutting height of 1 1/4 in. provides sufficient clearance to complete a full profile cut through standard solid surface countertop stock at that thickness.
What is the purpose of the 15 deg. angle on this rounding over bowl bit?
The 15 deg. beveled angle is specifically designed for undermount applications where a countertop meets a sink bowl. It creates the angled edge profile needed to produce a clean, secure junction between the countertop surface and the underside of an undermount sink or bowl.
Can this bit be used on materials other than solid surface countertop material?
Yes. According to the product data, this bit trims and shapes all wood and wood materials in addition to its primary application in solid surface countertop work, making it useful for a range of wood and wood-based substrates that fall within its 1 in. maximum material thickness rating.
