Product details

Description

The Freud Quadra-Cut Raised Panel Router Bit is a professional-grade woodworking tool engineered to deliver flawless, ultra-smooth profiles for custom cabinet doors, drawer fronts, decorative wall paneling, and architectural molding. Designed with an innovative 4-cutter Quadra-Cut system, it integrates two small downward-shearing wings to slice the top edge cleanly without splintering, alongside two large upward-shearing wings that produce an exceptionally smooth finish.

Featuring a 3-1/2 inch cutting diameter, a 1/2 inch shank, and a 1/2 inch carbide height optimized specifically for 5/8 inch stock, this router bit ensures high precision and longevity. The protective Perma-SHIELD non-stick coating minimizes heat, friction, and resin buildup during intensive routing tasks.

Built for professional carpenters, woodworkers, and serious hobbyists operating table-mounted routers with a secure fence, this genuine USA-imported accessory offers exceptional durability and superior craftsmanship for intricate joinery projects.

How to use

  1. Install the 1/2 inch shank securely into a table-mounted router equipped with a sturdy fence.
  2. Set the router speed to a maximum of 12,000 RPM or lower due to the large 3-1/2 inch diameter profile.
  3. Take shallow, incremental passes rather than removing the entire profile in a single heavy pass to ensure safety and clean results.

Ingredients

Premium industrial-grade carbide cutting edges, heat-treated alloy steel body, non-stick Perma-SHIELD protective coating.

    professional finish for custom panels

    Built a set of custom cabinet doors last weekend and tested this out on the router table. The cutting diameter handled the 5/8 inch stock smoothly without any burning or tear out. Really solid piece of kit.
