Add Classic Detail to Your Projects with the Freud Cove and Bead Router Bit
Enhance the visual appeal of your woodworking creations with the Freud 38-304 1-9/16" Cove and Bead Router Bit. This precision-engineered tool cuts a timeless profile featuring a smooth concave radius (Cove) paired with a rounded convex edge (Bead). It is the ideal solution for adding distinctive, professional-grade design to cabinet doors, furniture edges, plaques, and architectural millwork. Whether you are routing hardwood, softwood, plywood, or composite materials, this bit delivers a crisp, clean finish. Its 1/4" shank is compatible with a wide variety of hand-held and table-mounted portable routers.
Freud bits are renowned for their industrial durability and cutting performance. The 38-304 is constructed with TiCo™ Hi-Density Carbide, a proprietary blend designed to retain a sharp edge significantly longer than standard carbide. The body of the bit is protected by Freud’s exclusive Red Perma-SHIELD® Non-Stick Coating, which minimizes friction and prevents the buildup of heat, rust, and pitch during use. Computer-balanced for vibration-free operation, this bit ensures a smooth surface finish that reduces the need for sanding.

- Classic Profile: Creates a decorative Cove and Bead edge perfect for molding and furniture.
- TiCo™ Hi-Density Carbide: Specially formulated carbide blend for maximum sharpness and durability.
- Perma-SHIELD® Coating: Non-stick red coating protects against heat, corrosion, and resin adhesion.
- Precision Balanced: Computer-balanced to eliminate vibration and ensure chatter-free cuts.
- Versatile Application: Safe for use with both hand-held and table-mounted routers.
- Material Compatibility: Cuts cleanly through composition materials, plywoods, hardwoods, and softwoods.

Pro-Tip: This bit has a large diameter (1-9/16") relative to its 1/4" shank. To avoid chatter and ensure safety, you must adhere strictly to the 16,000 Max RPM limit. For the smoothest possible finish, we strongly recommend making multiple light passes rather than attempting to cut the full profile depth in a single pass.
