Tork Craft CKP1204 Corner Round Router Bit 3/8 Inch Radius 1/4 Inch Shank

At a Glance: 3/8 inch corner round router bit with 1/4 inch shank, tungsten carbide cutting edge and 1/2 inch bearing for smooth rounded woodworking edges.

The Tork Craft CKP1204 Corner Round Router Bit is designed to create smooth, decorative and professional rounded edges on timber and suitable woodworking materials. With its 3/8 inch radius, this router bit is ideal for softening larger sharp edges on shelves, tabletops, frames, cabinet parts, furniture components and general woodworking projects where a more noticeable round-over profile is required.

The 1/2 inch bearing helps guide the bit along the edge of the workpiece, assisting with consistent profiling and a cleaner finish. It is a practical router accessory for carpenters, craftsmen, hobbyists, DIY users and woodworking workshops.

Standard Yellow corner round router bit for smooth edge profiling

Product highlights

3/8 inch radius Creates a smooth rounded profile on suitable timber and woodworking materials.
1/4 inch shank Designed for use with routers fitted with a compatible 1/4 inch collet.
Tungsten carbide cutting edge Provides clean cutting performance and good wear resistance.
Bearing guided The 1/2 inch bearing helps guide the router bit along the workpiece edge.
Professional edge finish Ideal for furniture, shelving, frames, cabinets, moulding and trim work.
Smooth and accurate cutting Specifically engineered to help deliver controlled woodworking results.

Definition: The basic edge-forming bit, the corner-rounding bit rounds an edge to a given radius. The tool is shouldered to cut a fillet. The cut can be used to ease edges, as a simple profile, or as a part of a complex one. Also known as roundover, rounding over, and quarter-round. If a smaller pilot bearing is used, a second shoulder can be produced, in effect making the bit a beading bit.

Extra Information

The CKP1204 creates a 3/8 inch radius corner round profile.
The bit has a 1/4 inch shank and should only be used in a compatible router collet.
Ensure that at least 3/4 of the shank length is inserted into the router collet.
Do not bottom-out the bit in the collet. Leave approximately 1/8 inch clearance from the bottom of the collet.
When removing larger amounts of stock, route in two or more passes for better control and finish.
For outside edges, feed the router anti-clockwise. For inside edges or frames, feed clockwise when using a portable router.
Suggested maximum router speed for a 1.25 inch diameter bit is 18,000 RPM, but always follow the router manufacturer’s guidance.

Pro Tips

Test the profile on a scrap piece of the same material before routing the final workpiece.
Use shallow passes rather than removing too much material in one cut, especially with the larger 3/8 inch radius.
Keep the router base flat and steady against the workpiece to avoid uneven edges.
Make sure the bearing is clean and spins freely before use.
Use a router table and fence whenever possible for better control and repeatable results.

How to Use

Make sure the router is switched off and unplugged before fitting the bit.
Insert at least 3/4 of the shank length into the router collet, leaving about 1/8 inch clearance from the bottom.
Tighten the collet securely according to the router manufacturer’s instructions.
Set the cutting depth to achieve the required 3/8 inch round-over profile.
Secure the workpiece firmly before routing.
Start the router and allow it to reach full speed before contacting the workpiece.
Feed the router steadily in the correct direction and avoid forcing the bit.
Switch off the router and wait for the bit to stop completely before removing it from the workpiece.

Explaining the Specifications:

(d) -> The diameter of the shank or shaft. This size should be the same as the collet size of your router. Example: a small router is mostly supplied with a quarter inch collet that is 6,35 mm inside diameter.
Common collet sizes:
- 1/4" collet = 6,35mm inside diameter
- 8mm collet = 8mm inside diameter
- 12mm collet = 12mm inside diameter
- 1/2" collet = 12,7mm inside diameter
- NOTE that the 12mm and the 12,7mm (1/2") sizing are often misunderstood. 1/4 inch is not 6mm but exactly 6,35mm. A 6mm shank will not fit in a 1/4 in collet. Wrong sizes will either break the collet or the bit will fall out.
TCT = Tungsten Carbide Tipped
Allways stay in the MAX Speed range of router bit
