Festool Box-OF HW S8 Mix Router Bit Box 10 Piece Set

At a Glance: 10-piece carbide-tipped router bit box with 8mm shank cutters for profiling, grooving, trimming and edge work in wood

The Festool Box-OF HW S8 Mix is a neatly organised router bit set packed with ten popular carbide-tipped cutters for everyday woodworking and joinery tasks. This set gives the user a practical mix of groove cutters, profile cutters, chamfer cutter, edge trimming cutter, dovetail cutter and groove cutting disc, all stored securely in a clear and compact cutter box. It is the kind of router accessory set that earns its space in the workshop because it covers many common routing jobs without the bits rolling around loose in a drawer. Nice and tidy — exactly how router bits should live.

Cutters for any task

This router bit box includes ten different carbide-tipped cutters suitable for wood. Each cutter is clearly arranged and easy to remove, helping users select the right profile quickly while keeping the cutting edges protected during storage and transport.

Product highlights

  • 10-piece router bit set A useful mix of cutters for common routing applications.
  • Carbide-tipped cutters Designed for clean, durable cutting performance in wood.
  • 8mm shank Suitable for routers with an 8mm collet.
  • Clearly organised storage Each cutter is stored securely and can be removed individually.

  • Ideal workshop starter set A smart router bit selection for woodworkers, joiners and installers.

Extra Information

  • This set contains ten carbide-tipped router cutters suitable for wood.
  • The cutters have an 8mm shank and require a compatible 8mm router collet.
  • Each cutter is stored separately in the box for easy selection and safer storage.
  • Some cutters include a ball bearing guide for controlled routing along edges or templates.
  • Always match the cutter type, speed and feed rate to the material and routing task.

Pro Tips

  • Make multiple shallow passes instead of one deep cut to improve control and reduce strain on the router bit.
  • Check that the 8mm shank is fully seated and securely tightened in the router collet before switching on the machine.
  • Keep the cutters clean and free of resin build-up to maintain a smoother cut and reduce heat.
  • Test decorative profiles on scrap wood first so the final edge profile is exactly what you want.
  • Store each cutter back in its correct position after use to protect the cutting edges and keep the set complete.

How to Use

  • Select the correct router bit for the required application.
  • Switch off and unplug the router before fitting or changing the cutter.
  • Insert the 8mm shank into a compatible 8mm collet and tighten it securely.
  • Set the router speed and cutting depth according to the cutter size and material.
  • Secure the workpiece properly before routing.
  • Make a test cut on scrap material to confirm the profile, depth and finish.
  • Route steadily without forcing the cutter through the material.
  • Use multiple shallow passes for deeper grooves or larger profiles.
  • After use, allow the cutter to stop completely before removing the router from the workpiece.
  • Clean the cutter if required and return it to the storage box.

Features

  • Mixed routing set Includes ten different cutters for a wide range of woodworking tasks.
  • Carbide-tipped cutting edges Helps provide reliable cutting performance and longer service life.
  • 8mm shank size Designed for use with compatible 8mm router collets.

Safety

  • Wear suitable eye, ear and dust protection when routing.

  • Use only with a compatible 8mm router collet and make sure the cutter is clamped securely.
  • Check the cutter for damage, cracks or dull cutting edges before use.
  • Secure the workpiece properly before routing.
  • Keep hands clear of the cutter and never touch the bit while it is spinning.
  • Allow the router bit to stop completely before lifting the router or making adjustments.
