CMT Roman Ogee Bit, 1-1/8 in. Dia. - 1/4 in. Shank

CMT Roman Ogee Router Bit - 1-1/8 in. Diameter - 1/4 in. Shank

Create elegant, detailed edges with the CMT Roman Ogee Bit featuring a horizontal bead detail that adds extra dimension to the classic Roman ogee profile. This router bit is ideal for adding refined decorative touches to furniture, cabinetry, doors, and other classical woodworking projects.

Designed for precision and durability, this bit produces smooth, professional-looking profiles in a variety of woodworking applications. For the best finish, make multiple passes when routing deeper profiles.

Features:

• Creates a classic Roman ogee profile with an added horizontal bead detail for enhanced visual appeal.
• Ideal for decorative edges on furniture, cabinets, doors, and other fine woodworking projects.
• Designed for use on hardwoods, softwoods, plywood, and composite materials.
• 1-1/8 in. diameter cutting profile with a 1/4 in. shank.
• Precision-ground carbide cutting edges provide long life and a clean finish.

Safety Tips:

• Always wear a dust mask and eye protection when routing.
• Never use damaged or worn router bits.
• Always operate at the recommended feed rate and avoid forcing the bit.
• When using small diameter bits, pay close attention during the initial cut and make multiple passes for best results.

Shop Tips:

• For optimal results, remove material gradually with multiple passes instead of making one deep cut.

How CMT Produces High-Quality Router Bits

• Turning, Milling, and Cutting: CMT uses advanced automated CNC machinery operated by specially trained technicians to produce router bit bodies and shanks with exceptional accuracy, balance, and consistency.
• Heat-Forged Steel Bodies for Large Diameter Bits: Larger diameter router bits may require additional manufacturing steps, including heat forging. This process creates a radial grain structure that improves strength and durability.
• Precision Brazing: CMT's computerized brazing process creates a secure carbide-to-steel bond. The silver-copper-silver brazing system provides a shock-absorbing connection that helps protect carbide tips during demanding cuts.
• Specially Formulated Carbide: CMT develops carbide compositions tailored to specific applications, balancing hardness and impact resistance for cutting everything from laminates to large decorative profiles.
• Grinding and Sharpening: Multi-axis CNC grinding machines sharpen each cutting edge with micron-level precision, delivering a razor-sharp edge with excellent durability and performance.
