Amana Tool Ogee Fillet Router Bit For Edgeforming

Amana Tool ogee fillet router bit shapes decorative edges on workpieces using a 2-flute cutting design, which cuts a defined ogee curve efficiently for consistent edgeforming results. The bit has a ball bearing guide that follows the workpiece edge, so the profile tracks the edge instead of a fence for straightforward setup on many jobs. The 1-3/8 inch diameter cutting profile forms a substantial decorative edge, which helps match wider trim or larger cabinet and furniture components. A radius of 5/32 inch in the curve creates a relatively tight ogee detail, which suits finer edge work where a more compact profile is needed. The 1/4 inch shank fits routers that accept 1/4 inch bits, allowing use in compact and mid-size tools. An overall length of 2-1/16 inch keeps the bit manageable in handheld and table-mounted router setups.

Key Edgeforming Details That Support Clean Profiles

• The ogee pattern has a step at the end of the concave portion of the curve, so each pass creates a repeatable stepped detail that helps visually separate the edge from the flat face of the workpiece.
• Using the optional 3/8 inch bearing produces a profile with a fillet at the convex end of the curve, which lets you select between two edge looks while using the same bit body.
• The 2-flute cutting layout spreads the cutting load over two edges, which supports smoother cutting action along the edge and helps maintain a uniform profile when routing typical woodworking materials.
• The ball bearing guide runs against the workpiece edge during routing, which helps follow curved or straight edges accurately without relying only on fence positioning.
• The 1-3/8 inch diameter and 1/2 inch cutting height define the overall size of the cut, which helps align this bit to projects needing a medium-scale decorative edge instead of a very small or very large profile.

Router Bit Use In Handheld Or Table-Mounted Setups

This ogee fillet router bit can be used in a handheld router, so the bit travels along the edge while the workpiece stays fixed, which suits large panels or installed parts. It can also be used in a table-mounted router, where the workpiece is guided along the bit, which helps when working with smaller stock that benefits from table support. The 1/4 inch shank engages routers accepting 1/4 inch bits, tying the bit directly to compact or mid-size machines common in many shops. The ball bearing guide supports both mounting styles by controlling the cut relative to the edge, so the same setup logic applies whether the router is moved over the work or the work is moved along the table fence and bearing.

Using This Ogee Fillet Router Bit In Woodworking

Where This Edgeforming Router Bit Is Typically Applied

This edgeforming router bit belongs to the Bits, Blades and Cutters category under Edgeforming, which positions it for shaping decorative edges on woodworking projects. The ogee pattern with a step at the end of the concave portion of the curve suits cabinet doors, trim, and furniture edges where a shaped profile is required. When the optional 3/8 inch bearing is used, the bit produces a profile with a fillet at the convex end of the curve, which adds another edge style for casework or moldings that benefit from a secondary flat land in the profile. The 1-3/8 inch diameter and 1/2 inch cutting height provide a medium-size cut, which works well on edges thick enough to show the full pattern without overpowering the face of the part.

Profile And Shank Details That Support Repeatable Results

The 2-flute cutting design on this router bit means two cutting edges share the work, which helps the bit track steadily along the edge and maintain an even ogee shape from end to end. The ball bearing guide at the tip steers the bit against the workpiece edge, so the position of the decorative profile is controlled by the edge itself, which supports consistent reveal lengths on straight and curved work. A 5/32 inch radius in the ogee establishes a controlled, relatively tight curve, which helps when matching existing patterns that use a similar radius. The 1/4 inch shank connects the bit to routers designed for 1/4 inch tools, which is common in many shop and jobsite machines, supporting repeated setups with the same collet. The overall length of 2-1/16 inch keeps the cutting edges close to the collet, which contributes to a compact stack height for stable router operation during edgeforming.

Common Questions About This Edgeforming Router Bit

Select This Ogee Fillet Bit For Defined Edge Profiles
