Roundover & Beading Router Bits

Our Roundover and Beading router bits give you lots of profiles. In the Roundover configuration they produce a smooth radius that is ideal for the exposed edges of furniture, molding, table edges and shelves. Take two passes and you can quickly produce your own double-round or bull nose molding. Add our BCK-002, Beading Conversion Kit, to produce an extra inset bead along the lower edge of the cut. Our 3-Pc. and 6-Pc. sets both include the Beading Conversion Kit (BCK-002)
