1 in carbide tipped router bit

The Westward 16Y564 is a carbide tipped forming router bit with a 1 in cutter diameter. It produces a roundover cut profile and features a 1/2 in shank. The fractional inch design suits woodworkers shaping decorative edges on a router table or handheld router.

Practical limits of the fractional inch standard

The bit dimensions include 17/32 in and 2 19/32 in specifications that define the cutting geometry. These fixed measurements restrict the profile to a specific radius and depth. Woodworkers needing a different roundover size or a metric shank must select another bit.
