Festool radius router bit 2-1/8" x 5/64" is a profiling router bit designed for edge banding work. The bit is specified with a 5/16" shank, so it fits routers that accept this shank size, giving installers a direct match to common trim tools. The 2 mm radius profile shapes banded edges to a consistent curve, which helps deliver uniform edges on cabinets and panels. This Festool router bit is part of the Festool router bits class, keeping it aligned with other precision profiling tools in a shop. The bit is identified as manufacturer part number 499809, so repeat orders and replacements can be tied directly to that reference. As a profiling tool, it supports edge finishing tasks where a precise radius is needed on banded board edges.
This 2 mm radius router bit is intended for use with the Festool MFK 700 Trim Router, so it mates directly with that router platform during edge banding operations. The dedicated fit to the Festool MFK 700 Trim Router allows the bit to track along banded panels with the router base, supporting controlled, guided trimming strokes. The web description notes that this bit is for use with the Festool MFK 700 Trim Router, tying its geometry and shank design to that machine. This one-to-one use information helps installers assign the bit to the correct trim router in the shop when setting up for 3 mm edge banding tasks.
The router bit is described as producing the radius on 3mm wood or plastic edge banding, so it directly serves cabinet and panel work that uses 3mm banding materials. By being specified for wood edge banding, it supports solid or engineered panels where a shaped transition between face and edge banding is required. Its use on plastic edge banding extends the same radius profile to laminate-style or synthetic banding, so shops can run similar profiles across mixed materials. The mention of the MFK 700 Trim Router places this bit in trimming and profiling tasks at the panel edge, where installers walk the router along the workpiece. In practice, this positions the bit for finishing the exposed banded edge after initial application. The bit is also associated with KA65 in the SAP description, tying it into Festool edge banding workflows that involve that reference.
The bit has cutters that can be rotated, with four new cutting surfaces available, so the cutting edges can be presented fresh multiple times before replacement. This rotation extends the practical service life of the bit, allowing more linear feet of 3mm wood or plastic edge banding to be processed before changing tooling. Having four cutting surfaces helps maintain cutting quality over time, which matters when producing repeatable edge profiles across multiple cabinet runs or shop batches. The defined 2 mm radius gives a clear target profile, so each pass with the Festool MFK 700 Trim Router delivers the same contour on banding from piece to piece. Because the router bit is part of the router bits product class, it aligns with standard collet and setup practices in woodworking shops, supporting quick changeovers between profiling operations. The specific 2-1/8" x 5/64" dimensions also support estimating how the bit engages the banding, which helps operators plan feed speed and pass strategy during edge finishing.
This router bit is described as producing a radius on 3mm wood or plastic edge banding, so it targets finishing operations on that 3mm banding thickness in cabinet and panel work.
The Festool 499809 router bit is for use with the Festool MFK 700 Trim Router, so it is set up on that router for edge banding trimming and profiling passes along banded edges.
This router bit is specified as a 2 mm radius router bit, so it creates a 2 mm curved profile on the exposed 3mm wood or plastic edge banding surface during trimming.
The router bit has cutters that can be rotated, providing four new cutting surfaces, so users gain extended service life and more routed banding length before needing a replacement bit.
This Festool radius router bit is specified with a 5/16" shank, so it fits router collets sized for 5/16" shanks when installing it in the Festool MFK 700 Trim Router.
This router bit is described as a profiling router bit for edge banding, so it is designed for shaping 3mm wood or plastic banded panel edges during finishing operations.
The 2-1/8" x 5/64" Festool radius router bit with 5/16" shank is set up for shaping 3mm wood or plastic edge banding, giving installers a defined 2 mm profile for cabinet and panel work. Its rotating cutters provide four cutting surfaces, supporting extended use in edge finishing workflows. With its dedicated fit to the Festool MFK 700 Trim Router and clear Festool 499809 part identification, this bit aligns cleanly with existing Festool routing setups for precise edge banding passes.
