Master Precision Template Routing with Freud’s Down-Shear Mortising Excellence

The Freud 16-504 Top Bearing Mortising Router Bit is the ultimate solution for woodworkers who demand flawless, splinter-free results when recessing hinges, hardware, or cutting deep dadoes. Engineered with a specialized down-shear design, this bit pushes wood fibers downward during the cut to eliminate top-surface tear-out on delicate veneers, plywood, and solid hardwoods. The integrated top-mounted ball bearing allows you to follow templates and routing jigs with absolute precision, making it an indispensable tool for high-end cabinetry and custom furniture projects.

Constructed with Freud’s TiCo™ High-Density Carbide, this bit is built for industrial durability and sustained sharpness. It features deep center gullets designed for maximum material removal, allowing you to clear waste quickly without the risk of chip loading or overheating. To ensure a longer life and smoother operation, the 16-504 is treated with Perma-SHIELD® non-stick coating, which reduces friction and prevents resin or pitch buildup. Whether you are using a portable hand-held router, a table-mounted setup, or a CNC machine, this bit delivers the accuracy required for professional joinery and hardware installation.

Key Features

  • Down-Shear Angle: Eliminates top-surface splintering by pushing wood fibers down for a clean, professional finish.
  • Precision Top Bearing: Optimized for template-guided routing and popular woodworking jigs.
  • Deep Center Gullets: Facilitates rapid chip evacuation and maximum material removal without clogging.
  • Perma-SHIELD® Coating: Non-stick red coating protects against heat, friction, and pitch buildup.
  • TiCo™ High-Density Carbide: Specially formulated carbide provides a sharper edge and significantly longer cutting life.
  • Universal Compatibility: Perfect for use in CNC, hand-held, and table-mounted portable routers.
  • Versatile Application: Ideal for mortising hinges, hardware recesses, clean grooves, and precise dadoes.

Pro-Tip: When using a template with this top-bearing bit, ensure your template is thick enough (at least 1/4" to 1/2") to provide a secure surface for the bearing to follow. For the cleanest mortises, clear out the bulk of the waste with a Forstner bit or a standard straight bit first; this allows the mortising bit to focus on the final edges, reducing heat buildup and extending the life of your carbide cutters.

X-Large is about a size 12-13 shoe size foot USA.
Material Type: Black - 3 Pairs, Size: X-Large
I love them they work fantastic. I am a big guy with swollen feet. Wear size 12 to 13 USA Shoes. They fit me just fine not tight. My feet felt good after wearing them for two days. Some dry skin pulled off with them and it says to wash by hand. I dont know about the durability but I am hoping to get about 5 uses per pair. Before they become unusable.

Comfortable
Material Type: Black - 2 Pairs, Size: X-Large, Material Type: Black - 2 Pairs, Size: X-Large
I have very sensitive skin, so I usually need to wear socks at all times. These are especially comfortable because they don’t cover the toes, which helps with temperature control. The material is well-balanced—not too thick or too thin—and has just the right amount of stretch. I also appreciate the large traction area, which adds stability. Another plus is that they are completely fragrance-free.

Great Heel Socks
Material Type: Black - 3 Pairs, Size: Large
I don't know how they work but it's wonderful. I've had rough heel problems for a long time. I wear these everyday and my heels are not rough. They're not baby bottom smooth, but they are not ever going to be. These heel socks also oncce they are properly positioned snap onto the heel. Properly positioning them is easy when you put them on your foot with the heel cup in the correct orientation.
