Amana Tool 49112 1-1/8" Carbide Tipped Cove Router Bit

The covetto form – produced by the cove bit – is one of the classic building blocks for many molding profiles. Use it alone or in combination with beads and fillets. The cove also makes up one-half of the rule joint used on drop-leaf tables, the other half is the corner-round. For best results with a large radius cutter, make a preliminary cut with a smaller radius bit or chamfer the workpiece to reduce the amount of stock to be removed in the finish pass. This will produce a smoother finish and prolong tool life. The largest diameter bits must be run at reduced speed.
