Festool S8 HW R1 D28 KL12,7 MFK Roundover Cutter With Reversible Blades
At a Glance: 8mm shank roundover cutter with 1mm radius, 28mm diameter, carbide reversible blades and precision ball bearing for neat edge rounding and flush trimming.
The Festool S8 HW R1 D28 KL12,7 MFK Roundover Cutter is a precision router bit designed for clean, refined edge finishing on wood and plastic. With its small 1mm radius, this cutter is ideal for softening sharp edges while keeping the finished profile neat, subtle and professional. It is especially useful for furniture edges, panels, trims and solid wood finishing where a clean edge detail is required without creating a large rounded profile. The reversible carbide blade system keeps the cutter sharp and economical, while the precisely matched ball bearing helps guide the cutter smoothly along the workpiece edge for accurate, consistent routing results.
This cutter allows rounding and flush trimming in a single working step where the application allows. When the cutting edge becomes blunt, the reversible blade can be turned easily, giving a sharp tool again without resharpening. The result is less downtime, consistent cutter geometry and a cleaner professional finish.

Pro Tips
- Use this 1mm radius cutter when you want to remove a sharp edge but still keep a crisp, modern-looking workpiece profile.
- Make a test pass on scrap material first to confirm the radius, depth setting and final edge appearance.
- Turn or replace the reversible blade as soon as the cut quality drops to avoid burning, chipping or rough edges.
- Keep the ball bearing clean and spinning freely so the cutter follows the workpiece edge smoothly.
- Use steady feed pressure and avoid forcing the cutter; let the carbide blade do the cutting.
- For the cleanest finish on solid wood, route with controlled movement and pay attention to grain direction.
How to Use
- Confirm that the router is compatible and fitted with the correct 8mm collet.
- Disconnect the router from power before fitting the cutter.
- Insert the cutter shank into the collet to the correct depth and tighten securely.
- Set the routing depth so the bearing and cutter profile are correctly positioned on the workpiece edge.
- Test the setup on scrap material before routing the final workpiece.
- Allow the router to reach full speed before bringing the cutter into contact with the material.
- Guide the router steadily along the edge, allowing the ball bearing to follow the workpiece.
- After routing, switch off the machine and wait for the cutter to stop completely before setting the router down.
- Clean the cutter and check the blade condition before storing.
