Freud 99-521 2+2 3 1/2-Inch Raised Panel Bit Ogee (1/4-Inch Shank)

Designed for the serious woodworker, the Freud 99-521 Quadra-Cut - 3-1/2 Inch Dia. Ogee Profile Raised Panel 5/8-Inch Stock Router Bit - 1/2-Inch Shank features a non-stick Perma-Shield coating and Freud's patented Quadra-Cut design for a smoother finish that requires no rework. Quadra-Cut employs four cutting blades, rather than the industry standard of two, allowing you to create raised panels for doors and paneling and produce decorative tops, plaques, and molding. Because it's constructed with Freud's exclusive TiCo Hi-Density Carbide MicroGrain material, this durable router bit is designed to last.

Product Description

Application: Ideal for creating raised panels for doors and paneling, as well as decorative tops, plaques and molding.


Available in two carbide heights:
Use 1/2" height for 5/8" stock. Use 5/8" height for 3/4" stock.
Cuts all composition materials, plywoods, hardwoods, and softwoods. Use on table-mounted portable routers.


Freud's Quadra-Cut Router Bits Feature an Exclusive 4 Cutter Design!
For the cleanest finish for routing the edges of hard or soft wood, woodworkers can look to Freud's new Quadra-Cut router bits. These unique, patented bits employ four cutting edges, versus the industry standard of two, for a flawless finish on the most delicate of materials.


Two of the carbide cutters have an upshear angle to remove most of the stock. Then the pair of downshear cutters make a final cut to produce an ultra clean edge.


Industry standard bits that only have two cutters can leave fuzz and splinters on the top surface, especially in cross grain cuts, but Freud's new Quadra-Cut bits leave a surface that requires no sanding or rework.


Caution - Safety Tip:


3-1/2" diameter bits are not recommended for use with steel or aluminum router plates with 3-5/8" maximum openings, including the Rockler large aluminum router plates.
