Convex Half-Round Router Bit R3 – R60 mm | Concave Groove on Wood – HSS Premium / T.C.T. Carbide
Professional router bit with bore and convex profile (outwardly curved) — used for carving a concave groove on wood: decorative grooves, functional channels, carved handles, or classic architectural elements. Often used with a concave (rounding) router bit for alternating decorative bead-and-channel profiles. Available in a wide range of radii, from R3 to R60 mm, and in HSS M2 Premium and T.C.T. Carbide variants — select material, radius, and bore from the menu.

🔧 MAIN FEATURES:
- Precise Concave Groove: the convex profile of the router bit carves a uniform and aesthetic groove on wood, across the entire R3–R60 mm radius range.
- Durable Cutting Edges: 4 brazed teeth made of HSS M2 or T.C.T. Carbide, resistant to intensive use.
- T.C.T. Carbide for Composites: carbide inserts resist the abrasive wear of synthetic binders in MDF, particle board, and HDF, where HSS would wear prematurely.
- Ideal Pair with Concave Router Bit: combined with the rounding (concave) router bit, it allows for alternating decorative bead-and-channel profiles, typical for frames and classic architectural elements.
- Body with Oxidized Finish: black oxidation (bluing) treatment provides additional corrosion protection, in addition to the characteristic matte black appearance.
- Long-Term Investment: inserts can be successively resharpened at a specialized center (to maintain the rake angle), and with advanced wear, the router bit body can be re-brazed with new inserts.
- Compatible with Classic Spindle Moulders and 4-Sided Planers: mounts on both classic spindle moulders and 4-sided planers.
- Custom Radius on Request: if your project requires a specific radius outside the standard range, you can contact us with your project's technical drawing.
⚠️ USAGE LIMITATIONS:
- HSS M2 Variant: ❌ NOT recommended for use on particle board, MDF, HDF, or very hard exotic wood. For these materials, select the T.C.T. Carbide variant.
- Carbide Variant on Softwood: requires constant feed – stalling in rotation on resinous woods can cause local burns.
🛠️ Selection Guide: HSS M2 vs. T.C.T. Carbide
Choosing the correct cutting edge material directly influences the finish quality and tool lifespan:
| Material Processed | HSS M2 Premium ⭐ (6.5% Tungsten) |
T.C.T. Carbide ⭐ (Tungsten Carbide) |
|---|---|---|
| Softwood (Spruce, Pine, Fir) |
⭐ 100% (Flawless Finish) |
❌ Risk of burning (High friction) |
| Hardwood (Beech, Oak, Ash) |
80% (Efficient) |
⭐ 100% (Maximum resistance) |
| MDF / Particle Board / HDF / Laminated | Not recommended | ⭐ 100% (Optimal) |
| Number of Resharpenings | Maximum (M2) | Limited (3 mm) |
| Cutting Edge Material Hardness | 64 – 66 HRC | 85 – 92 HRC |
✅ Purchase Conclusions:
- HSS M2 – for solid wood: ideal for soft and hardwoods, a cutting edge that sharpens more finely, leaving the concave groove perfectly smooth directly from the machine.
- T.C.T. Carbide – for composites and intensive production: mandatory for MDF, particle board, HDF, or abrasive exotic/composite woods, where it lasts much longer than HSS without resharpening.
- Simple Configuration: select the Material (HSS/Carbide), the Radius (R3–R60) suitable for your project, and the Spindle Bore according to the flange of the machinery used in your workshop.
🦺 SAFETY MEASURES DURING USE:
- Mandatory protective equipment: safety glasses (against projected chips), mask or respirator filter (fine wood dust), and earmuffs for prolonged work.
- Attention to hands and fingers: maintain a safe distance from the cutting area and use feed/push devices where possible; do not manually intervene near the moving router bit.
- Check the secure fastening of the router bit and spacer rings on the spindle before starting the machine.
- Observe the recommended speed indicated for each router bit to avoid vibrations or the risk of cutting edge breakage.
