2-1/8 x 3/64 radius router bit describes a Festool profiling router bit sized to cut a 1 mm radius, so installers get a small, consistent roundover on matching edge banding without guessing at the profile. This bit is designed for use with the Festool MFK 700 Trim Router, so it integrates into that specific trim routing setup you already run on site or in the shop. Festool identifies this tool as part number 499811 and classifies it as a router bit in the profiling category, which helps match it to technical documentation, service parts, and routing operations that call out that exact specification.
The Festool 2-1/8 x 3/64 radius router bit is built around a 5/16 inch shank, so it fits collets matched to that size on the Festool MFK 700 Trim Router for secure gripping and low runout during edge work. Its 1 mm radius profile is sized for 3 mm banding, helping the cutting edges follow the banding height instead of wandering onto the panel surface when the trim router is guided along cabinet parts. Because the bit is tied directly to the MFK 700 trim router system and the KA65 edge banding context in Festool documentation, it lines up with existing jigs and fences that reference that platform for repeat jobs.
This Festool router bit is described specifically as a router bit for edge banding, so its cutting profile is tuned around standard banding workflows instead of generic profiling. The 1 mm radius is set to produce a small roundover on 3 mm wood edge banding, so the cut softens the transition at the edge without removing too much material or changing the visual thickness of the band. When used on 3 mm plastic edge banding, the same radius profile shapes the plastic edge to match wood runs, so mixed-material installations across a job can hold a consistent edge detail. With overall dimensions of 2-1/8 inches by 3/64 inch, the body and cutting width are sized to keep the cut focused on the banding layer, which matters when working close to finished veneer or laminate faces.
The cutters on this Festool radius router bit can be rotated, and that design provides four new cutting surfaces before replacement is needed, so the same tool body stays in service across multiple edges and jobs. Each time a cutting edge wears, the installer can index to a fresh edge, so the bit maintains a sharp 1 mm radius profile instead of gradually leaving burnished or chatter-prone surfaces on banding. Because the web description highlights that rotating the cutters prolongs service life, the bit supports longer intervals between purchases while preserving the defined 1 mm radius that matches earlier passes on the same project. As a result, the router bit helps keep edge detail consistent from cabinet to cabinet, even as individual cutting edges are cycled through their four positions over time.
This Festool router bit targets 3 mm wood or plastic edge banding, so its 1 mm radius profile is sized to shape that specific banding thickness on cabinetry and similar work.
The 499811 radius router bit is designed for use with the Festool MFK 700 Trim Router, so it fits into edge banding workflows built around that trim router platform.
The 1 mm radius on this router bit forms a small, controlled roundover on 3 mm banding, easing sharp edges while keeping a crisp, modern edge detail on cabinets or furniture.
This MFK 700 trim router bit uses a 5/16 inch shank, so it is sized for collets that grip that diameter within the Festool trim routing system.
The rotatable cutters provide four cutting surfaces, so when one dulls, a fresh edge can be used, keeping the 1 mm radius cut sharp through extended runs of edge banding.
The 2-1/8 x 3/64 dimensions describe the overall bit size and cutting width, so the cut stays focused on 3 mm banding instead of removing excess from the panel face.
The Festool 2-1/8 x 3/64 radius router bit for edge banding is specified for 3 mm wood or plastic banding, so it directly supports common casework edge treatments. Its 1 mm radius profile and 5/16 inch shank are matched to the Festool MFK 700 Trim Router platform, which keeps fit and cutting geometry aligned with that tool. With rotatable cutters providing four fresh edges, this router bit keeps its defined radius cut active over many linear feet of banding. Use this Festool 499811 profiling router bit whenever a controlled, repeatable radius on 3 mm edge banding is required.
