Key Features & Benefits
- 1/2″ shank — significantly reduces vibration and bit deflection compared to 1/4″ shanks, giving cleaner dovetail profiles at production feed rates in hardwood and engineered panels.
- Carbide-tipped edges — long-lasting sharpness in demanding production environments.
- Dovetail geometry — mechanical interlock profile for maximum joint strength in drawers, carcasses and furniture frames.
When to Use This Bit
Choose the T 1018 1/2 for router table use in production joinery. The 1/2″ shank is essential in full-size router tables where reduced vibration and increased bit stiffness make a measurable difference to cut quality in dense hardwoods. For handheld or compact router work, the 1/4″ version (T 1018) is available.
