Description of Bosch 85605M Carbide Tipped Cove

Used to create an attractive accent with a classic woodworking design. Control cut design helps minimize kickback. Smoothly radiused edge requires little or no sanding before applying finish. Micrograin carbide tips provide superior wear resistance and long life. Compact ball-bearing pilot guides bit along edge of material.

Exceptional Cove Router Bit!

According to my experience, this router bit provides precise and smooth cove shapes on wood. The carbide tip lasts longer even after extensive use and the overall construction is durable.

Pros
  • Precise cove shape, long-lasting carbide tip, durable construction.
Cons
  • Slightly expensive compared to some other options in the market.

Milling cutter with 1/2 " shank

The description does not indicate whether the cutter is 1/4" shank or 1/2" shank, but the attached picture shows the smaller 1/4" shank. When I received it , I found the bit has a 1/2" shank, so I'm sending it back. I have no doubt that the bit is of high quality, although it did not fit me.

Pros
  • All right!
Cons
  • Expensive

The best there is, buy it. Back to work.

Bosch bits rated best by furniture store trade magazines along with Oldham bits (formerly worn by HD), not sure if they exist. This is also our experience in our workshop - Bosch bits seem to hold the blade a little longer than others and have a lot of carbide to re-sharpen. They're also consistent and easy to find if you lose a job in between.

Pros
  • delivery was very quick
Cons
  • crumpled
