Freud 42-104: 1/2 (Dia.) Bearing Flush Trim Bit

Works really well and keeps everything straight and aligned.

I had 30 parts to cut and did not want to use a jig saw to cut the. I made a jig and routed them all in about 1/2 hour. Very happy with them.

What more is there to say?

This is a great tool. Keep it clean and the bearing greased and it will last a very long time. I highly recommend it.

Used once so far on MDF. Worked great. Might be a 5 star.

Good product and seems durable did the job I needed it to do. Cut hard red oak like butter. Very accurate and it rolls well. Will buy other bits in the future.

I use this to trim Wilsonart laminate to plywood edges in a Sprinter I built into an RV. I went overboard, laminating both sides of many panels. After about 6 large sheets it is showing some wear. I learned to squirt it with WD40 before and after each job, because that loosens the contact cement I used for the laminate. If the bearing stops spinning, youll burn the wood.

These router bits stay sharp for cutting 3/4 particle boards and laminate

I needed a longer bit for some of the projects I was doing and this worked great. Getting the bit out of the package was a little harder than it should be and I had to find another case to store it in so I dont accidentally cut myself just trying to get it out. The bearing and cutting diameter were good on the one I received and it cut great for a long time. By the end of my project it did start to dull and I got more burning than I like. I will see if I can sharpen it.

Im giving the bit itself 5 stars. This is my first Freud bit, I wanted to start small and cheap to decide for myself whether all the hype over Freud bits is true...it is! The bearing is silky smooth, the cut is clean and burr free and the edge stay sharp, what else could you want!? As for the product description, watch out. The Amazon description claims you will get a two flute bit and a three flute bit...I figured, not a bad price for two bits. What actually arrived?...a single, two flute bit. After chatting with customer service, he agreed the description did indeed reference a two bit(pardon the pun) set, and agreed to send a replacement. The replacement, another single two flute bit...after talking again, Amazon agreed to refund $5 to my CC and allow me to keep both bits(the original and the replacement). So in the end, I got two bits for ~8, not bad, but Im not sure if theyd do the same again. So, bit quality, a resounding 5 stars, product description, 1 star, Amazon CS, 5 stars...sounds like a 4 star average to me!
