Freud steel ball bearing gives you a dedicated part for repairing and altering the profile of Freud router bits, so worn or changed profiles can be brought back into reliable working condition without replacing the full bit. The 22 mm diameter bearing runs on a 1/4 inch shank with a 2 inch length, so it matches router bit setups that are built around this size and keeps your profiles tracking where they should. Being a Freud Tool part in the Bits, Blades and Cutters Replacement Parts category, this bearing is designed as a service component in your cutting system rather than a general-purpose shop item. The bearing will fit most brands of router bits, so a single part can cover mixed-router-bit setups and support consistent edge work across different tools. As a dedicated BALL BEARING replacement, it sits in the cutting assembly where precise rotation directly affects cut quality.
This Freud Tool ball bearing is described for repairing and altering the profile of Freud router bits, so it is intended to sit where the original guide bearing runs and restore the designed tracking point on the bit. With a 22 mm diameter and 1/4 inch shank, the bearing fits router bit configurations built for that guide size and shank interface, so the rotational center and contact surface align with the original design. The 2 inch length supports router bit bodies dimensioned for that stack height, keeping the bearing located where the cutting edges expect guidance. Because the bearing will fit most brands of router bits, it can be used as a common replacement across different manufacturers that follow this size, simplifying setup across a mixed rack of bits.
This BALL BEARING is specified for repairing and altering the profile of Freud router bits, so it is used directly on the router bit as the guide element that controls how the cutting edges follow workpieces, jigs, or templates. When installed on compatible bits with a 22 mm bearing diameter and 1/4 inch shank interface, it becomes the guiding contact point that defines how profiles, edges, and pattern work track during cutting. Being part of the Bits, Blades and Cutters Replacement Parts category, it sits in the same assembly as the cutting edges rather than in the router motor, so any wear or failure at this bearing would otherwise translate into poor tracking or surface defects. The fact that it will fit most brands of router bits means it can serve in shops that run Freud bits alongside other manufacturers that use the same bearing specification, supporting consistent guiding behavior across that range.
Freud router bearings feature superior quality ball bearings, so the rolling elements are built to turn smoothly under load, which supports cleaner tracking of edge profiles over the life of the bit. They are lubricated with high temperature lubricant to withstand the stresses of turning at 22,000 RPMs, so the bearing film is specified to stay effective under the heat and speed common in router work, helping rotation stay consistent during extended passes. The bearing is shielded to keep out unwanted wood dust and chips that greatly reduce bearing life, so debris from routing is physically blocked from entering the rolling path, which supports smoother motion and reduces the chance of binding as the bit runs. Being individually packed from Freud Tool, each BALL BEARING arrives as a distinct service part identified by 62-108, supporting controlled replacement cycles where the exact same component is used whenever that part number is specified on a router bit diagram.
The Freud steel ball bearing is specified for repairing and altering the profile of Freud router bits, so it restores the guide function on bits built for this configuration.
The bearing will fit most brands of router bits that are designed around a 22 mm diameter bearing and 1/4 inch shank mounting, supporting wide use across compatible bits.
The bearing is lubricated with high temperature lubricant to withstand stresses of turning at 22,000 RPMs, so it maintains smooth rotation under typical router speeds.
The bearing is shielded to keep out unwanted wood dust and chips that greatly reduce bearing life, so the rolling elements stay cleaner during cutting work.
The 2 inch length matches router bit assemblies designed around this dimension, so the bearing occupies the correct position relative to the cutting edges.
Manufacturer part number 62-108 uniquely identifies this Freud ball bearing, so matching or repeating the same component in parts lists stays direct.
This Freud steel ball bearing, identified as 62-108, combines a 22 mm diameter, 1/4 inch shank, and 2 inch length to serve as a direct BALL BEARING replacement on router bits designed for this configuration. Its superior quality ball bearings, high temperature lubricant rated for 22,000 RPMs, and shielded construction support smooth rotation and protection from wood dust and chips while the bit tracks along your work or templates. For shops maintaining Freud router bits and other compatible bits, this individually packed Freud Tool replacement part keeps the guiding element of the bit performing to its intended profile.
