Product Description
The CMT 866.501.11 Solid Surface Bevel Bowl Bit is a precision-engineered routing bit built for undermount sink and bowl applications where a clean, angled joint between a countertop and bowl is required. With a 15 deg. bevel angle, a 1-1/4 in. cutting diameter, and a 7/8 in. cutting height, this bit trims and shapes solid surface countertop materials with accuracy and consistency. Designed for use with hand-held routers, it delivers the controlled, beveled edge geometry needed for kitchen and bathroom countertop fabrication.
Key Features
- 15 deg. bevel angle - purpose-built for undermount applications, creating the precise angled edge needed to join countertops and sink bowls cleanly and securely.
- 1-1/4 in. cutting diameter with 7/8 in. cutting height - provides a generous cutting envelope for routing solid surface bowl profiles in a single clean pass.
- 2-tooth (2-flute) hardwood carbide (HW) cutting edges - delivers smooth, controlled material removal in solid surface and wood materials, reducing tearout and improving edge quality.
- 1/2 in. shank - fits standard 1/2 in. router collets, offering improved stability and vibration reduction compared to smaller shank sizes during countertop work.
- Right-hand (RH) rotation - compatible with all standard router configurations, ensuring correct cutting direction and safe operation.
- 2-53/64 in. total length - compact enough for hand-held router use while providing sufficient reach for bowl and sink undermount profiling.
- Designed for solid surface materials - optimized for use on materials commonly found in kitchen and bathroom countertop fabrication, trimming and shaping wood and wood-composite surfaces as well.
Why This Product
- Specialized geometry for undermount bowl work - the 15 deg. bevel is specifically engineered for the joint between a countertop and an undermount sink or bowl, making this the right tool for that particular fabrication step rather than a general-purpose compromise.
- Hand-held router compatibility - designed specifically for use on hand-held routers, giving countertop fabricators the freedom to work on installed or positioned countertops without requiring a router table setup.
- Hardwood carbide cutting edges for durability - HW-grade carbide holds an edge longer through solid surface and wood materials, meaning fewer bit changes and more consistent results across a full workday of countertop fabrication.
- Kitchen and bathroom countertop focus - this bit addresses a very specific and common countertop fabrication task, trimming and profiling bowl cutouts, making it a targeted addition to any solid surface installer's toolkit.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the bevel angle on the CMT 866.501.11, and why does it matter for undermount applications?
The 866.501.11 has a 15 deg. bevel angle. This specific angle is designed to create the angled edge profile needed when joining a solid surface countertop to an undermount sink or bowl, ensuring a tight, accurate fit between the two surfaces.
What shank size does this bit require, and what type of router can I use it with?
This bit uses a 1/2 in. shank and is designed for use on hand-held routers equipped with a 1/2 in. collet. The 1/2 in. shank provides added stability during countertop profiling work.
What materials can this bevel bowl bit cut?
The CMT 866.501.11 is designed for solid surface countertop materials and also trims and shapes wood and wood materials, making it suitable for a range of kitchen and bathroom countertop fabrication tasks.
How many cutting edges does this bit have, and what carbide grade is used?
The bit features 2 cutting teeth (flutes) made from HW-grade hardwood carbide. This carbide material is suited for solid surface and wood material applications, supporting consistent edge quality through repeated use.
