Wood Rounding Router Bit Condor CON-RB-708 38 x 12.7 x 19 mm, 8 mm shank

Condor CON-RB-708 wood rounding router bit with cutting dimensions 38 x 12.7 x 19 mm and an 8 mm shank is designed for producing smooth, rounded edges on solid wood and wood-based panels. The bit cuts a consistent radius profile suitable for furniture edges, tabletops and general joinery, and is compatible with handheld routers and plunge routers that accept an 8 mm shank. Its geometry balances stock removal and surface finish to minimise tear-out when used with appropriate feed rates and sharp cutters.

Advantages

The cutter profile provides an even, repeatable rounded edge with minimal sanding required. An 8 mm shank ensures stable clamping in most router collets for reduced vibration and improved concentricity. The bit’s cutting dimensions allow efficient material removal while leaving a smooth profile, making it practical for both single-piece work and repetitive production tasks. Designed for wood and wood-based panels, it maintains a clear edge profile on common furniture materials.

Suitable for

• Rounding edges on tabletops and shelves
• Shaping furniture components and cabinet doors
• Creating smooth edges on solid wood and MDF or plywood panels
• Trim and finishing work in joinery and carpentry shops

Key specifications

• Cutting profile radius and dimensions: 38 x 12.7 x 19 mm
• Shank diameter: 8 mm for common router collets
• Material compatibility: solid wood and wood-based panels (MDF, plywood, etc.)
• Intended tools: handheld routers and plunge routers with compatible collets
• Application: edge rounding and profile shaping

How to use

Secure the 8 mm shank in the router collet and ensure the bit is tightened to the manufacturer’s torque recommendation. Set the router speed appropriate to the material and bit size, then make test passes on scrap material to confirm the desired profile and feed rate. Use multiple light passes rather than heavy cuts for a cleaner finish and reduced stress on the bit. Where possible, rout with the grain direction to minimise tear-out and support the workpiece firmly to avoid vibration.

Usage recommendations

Wear appropriate personal protective equipment including eye and hearing protection. Keep cutters sharp and inspect for damage before use. For best surface quality, use progressive passes and finish with light sanding if needed. Avoid using the bit on materials with embedded metal or excessive glue residues that can damage cutting edges.
