1-3/8" x 2-5/8" Roman Ogee Bit, 2-Flute, 1/2" Shank

Roman Ogee Router Bit For Decorative Edging

Roman ogee router bit work shapes a classic decorative edge profile that suits trim, doors, and casework needing period furniture detail. This Bosch Roman ogee bit uses two flutes to cut a defined profile, so the edge reads cleanly along long runs. The carbide tipped cutting edges handle repeated profiling passes, which supports consistent results across multiple identical parts. The 1-3/8 inch x 2-5/8 inch size defines the scale of the ogee, so the profile matches projects that call for a larger, more pronounced edge. A 1/2 inch shank engages securely in routers designed for that size, which helps control vibration during profiling. The ball bearing pilot tracks the workpiece edge, so the bit follows the contour without external guides. This router bit serves profiling work on stock edges where decorative edging and period furniture details are specified.

Key Profiling Details That Support Your Work

• The 1-3/8 inch x 2-5/8 inch Roman ogee size sets the visual depth and height of the profile, which matters when matching an existing decorative edge on trim, rails, or furniture components.
• The 2-flute design presents two cutting edges around the bit, which smooths the cut and helps leave a cleaner edge on decorative profiles in a single pass when feed and speed are set appropriately.
• The carbide tipped cutting edges resist wear better than plain steel in normal routing work, which supports longer use between sharpenings on repeat decorative edging or furniture runs.
• The 1/2 inch shank seats firmly in a compatible router collet, which improves bit stability during profiling passes and supports more accurate control along the edge.
• The ball bearing pilot rides directly on the workpiece edge, which guides the ogee profile along straight or curved edges without setting up separate fences or template guides.
• The Bosch brand and 85592M part identification tie this Roman ogee router bit to a known profiling line, which helps future reordering when matching an existing decorative edge specification.

Router Bit Mounting And Profiling Workflow

This router bit uses a 1/2 inch shank, so it mounts into routers that accept that shank size for profiling work. The ball bearing pilot contacts the material edge first, which establishes the path before the carbide tipped cutting edges engage. The 2-flute layout balances cutting forces around the bit, which supports smoother feed when running decorative edges along longer boards. The 1-3/8 inch x 2-5/8 inch Roman ogee profile cuts to its designed depth and height as the shank is clamped at the required projection, so the same setup repeats the same profile on multiple pieces.

Using This Bit For Decorative And Period Work

Where This Roman Ogee Router Bit Excels

This Bosch Roman ogee bit is designed as a profiling router bit, so it works on stock edges where a shaped profile is required. The Roman ogee shape suits decorative edging, so it fits projects that call for visual detail along tabletops, rails, or moldings. The size of 1-3/8 inch x 2-5/8 inch sets the scale, which aligns with heavier trim or furniture components that need a more substantial edge treatment. The router bit belongs to the profiling class, so it is intended for shaping rather than straight cutting, which keeps it focused on edge detail work. The carbide tipped construction supports repeated passes along hardwood or softwood edges under typical shop use, which helps maintain a consistent Roman ogee appearance job to job.

Why These Bit Details Support Repeatable Results

The 2-flute configuration spaces the cutting edges evenly around the bit, which balances cutting pressure and helps reduce chatter, so the Roman ogee line reads smooth after routing. The ball bearing pilot at the tip guides the bit by rolling along the board edge, which keeps the ogee profile aligned even when following curved or non-fenced workpieces. The 1/2 inch shank offers a larger gripping surface in the collet, which supports accurate bit alignment and reliable depth settings across multiple setups. The carbide tipped edges resist wear under normal routing use, which maintains the original Roman ogee geometry and helps matching profiles over time. The Bosch 85592M designation clearly identifies this specific Roman ogee router bit, so production setups can call out the same bit when a job requires decorative edging matching previous work. The classification under Bits, Blades and Cutters in the profiling category reinforces its role for shaping edges rather than joinery.
