Elevate Your Woodworking: Freud 1/8" Radius Decorative Beading Router Bit

The Freud 36-118 Beading Router Bit is the definitive choice for craftsmen looking to add a sophisticated, professional touch to furniture and millwork. This high-performance bit features a precision-engineered 1/8" radius that creates a beautiful rounded profile with a distinct inset bead at the bottom. By utilizing Freud's exclusive TiCo Hi-Density Carbide, this tool ensures an ultra-smooth finish and significantly longer cutting life when working with hardwoods, softwoods, plywood, and various composite materials. Whether you are softening the sharp edges of a square corner or adding detailed decorative edging to cabinetry, this bit delivers consistent, clinical results with every pass.

Engineered for maximum versatility, the Freud 36-118 is optimized for use with both hand-held and table-mounted portable routers. It comes standard with Freud's signature Perma-SHIELD coating, which effectively reduces friction, prevents heat buildup, and resists resin pitch to protect your investment over years of use. The bit includes a high-quality pilot bearing that creates the classic inset bead profile; however, for standard rounding-over tasks, it can be easily adapted by swapping the bearing components. From intricate millwork projects to high-end furniture construction, this 1/2" shank tool provides the stability and shearing power required by professional woodworkers who refuse to compromise on quality.

Specifications

Pro-Tip: To achieve a "Round-Over" profile instead of a "Beading" profile, simply replace the standard 3/8" pilot bearing with a Freud 62-104 bearing and add a 62-313 step washer; this converts the bit to cut a smooth radius without the inset step.
