The Rabbeting Router Bit is an essential joinery tool for woodworkers and cabinetmakers, specifically engineered to cut a precise, step-shaped recess—known as a rabbet or rebate—along the edge or end of a workpiece.
This bit is characterized by an integrated ball-bearing pilot, which rides directly against the edge of your material to guide the cut, ensuring a consistent and clean shoulder for the rabbet. It is the go-to solution for efficiently creating strong lap joints, cutting the recesses needed for cabinet backs, and producing perfectly sized inset doors and drawer fronts.
For maximum versatility, many rabbeting bits come as a set with interchangeable bearings of varying diameters, allowing a single bit to quickly and accurately produce multiple rabbet widths and depths to suit the precise requirements of any joint or decorative molding detail.
Application:
- Router bits are for use with router machines only.
- Be sure that at least 3/4 of the shaft length is inserted into the router collet.
- Do not 'bottom-out' the bit in the collet. The shank should be 1/8' from the bottom of the collet.
- Route in two or more passes when large amounts of stock must be removed.
- Carpenters
- Craftsmen
- Hobbyists
- Woodworking
- DIY
Extra Information
- Make multiple shallow passes rather than deep cuts to avoid burning and chatter.
- Ensure depth gauge or bearing is properly fitted and aligned to avoid overcutting shoulders.
- Check bit is fully seated and collet is tightened before use.
- Clean the bit after use to remove resin or chips for consistent performance.
Pro Tip
- Use a fence or straightedge to guide the rabbet cut and maintain consistent shoulder width.
- When working with veneered or laminated stock, score the edge first with a knife to prevent tear-out at the shoulder.
Features
- ⅜″ (≈ 9.53 mm) cutting width for standard rabbet depths.
- Shoulder cutter: includes bearing or depth guide for clean, square shoulders.
- Precision-ground edges: for sharp, clean cuts and minimal tear-out.
- Rigid body design: reduces vibration for smooth results.
- Collet-compatible shank: fits standard router collets securely.
Benefits
- Clean joints: produces flat bottoms and crisp shoulders for tight fits.
- Fast work: efficient cutting of rabbets for frame and joinery work.
- Compatibility: useful in cabinets, trim, woodworking joinery and panel edge trimming.
Safety
- Wear eye, hearing, and dust protection.
- Feed against bit rotation to ensure control and avoid kickback.
- Allow the router to reach full speed before contacting work; stop fully before removing.
- Inspect bit and collet before each use; replace if damaged or dull.
