Key Features & Benefits
- Full bull nose profile in one pass — rounds both the top and bottom edges of the board simultaneously, saving a second router setup.
- Ball bearing guide — tracks against the workpiece for consistent depth without a fence; suited to straight and curved work.
- Adjustable height for partial profiles — raise or lower the bit height to produce a partial radius (quarter-round) on one edge rather than the full bull nose on both.
- Drawing line bit conversion — can be modified to produce a drawing line profile; see the callout below for guidance.
- 2-flute carbide-tipped construction — long tool life and clean finish across hardwoods, softwoods and laminates.
When to Use This Bit
Choose the TBN15B 1/2 for table tops, bench edges, handrails and any application needing a fully rounded (bull nose) edge profile. Adjust the machine height to use only the top half of the profile as a standard rounding over cut, or run the full depth for the classic bull nose. For a matching drawing line profile on the opposite face, pair with the Carbitool Canoe Slat Bit (TCO1B series). Radii in the R650 series run from 2 mm (TBN2B) through to 32 mm (TBN32MB 1/2).
Pro Tip: To convert the TBN15B 1/2 into a drawing line bit, adjust the router height so only a portion of the cutter contacts the workpiece edge. Combined with the matching Canoe Slat Bit (TCO1B), you can produce the classic lap-join slat wall profile.
