MPN: 80-578
Minimum order quantity is .
The Freud 80-578 15/16" Triple Beading Bit is your go-to tool for creating traditional decorative molding with a single, clean pass. Designed to etch three evenly spaced beads into the face surface of flat stock, it delivers a classic bead profile that elevates furniture, cabinetry, and ornamental moldings.
Why choose this triple-bead bit? Because it combines precision with efficiency. In one cut you get the three-bead rhythm you need without the multiple passes or swapping bits. The result is a uniform, repeatable profile that is difficult to reproduce with separate bits or hand-crafting.
- One-pass three-bead profile: Achieve a polished, traditional look on planks, panels, and boards in less time than with single-pass methods.
- Material versatility: Cuts hardwood, softwood, plywood, and composites. Perfect for face-edge decoration on cabinetry, furniture panels, doors, and frames.
- Router compatibility: Use with hand-held or table-mounted routers to fit your workshop setup and workflow.
- Consistent results: Precise carbide geometry creates uniform beads across long runs, reducing touch-up work and sanding.
Ideal use cases: Create ornate picture frames, cabinet doors with a bead-trim detail, mantels, or decorative panels that require a classic three-bead molding. Especially effective when renovating or building traditional-style furniture and interiors where authentic period profiles matter.
What makes it unique: The 80-578 triple-bead design from Freud/Diablo is engineered for stability and long life under repeated use. The profile is crafted to minimize tear-out on both soft and dense woods, delivering a clean edge and crisp beads with each pass.
-
Practical tips:
- Start with a light initial pass to establish the bead profile, then gradually deepen for final shaping.
- Feed steadily and maintain a consistent speed to prevent tear-out, especially on end grain.
- Follow material-specific guidelines for cutting depth and feed rate, and use appropriate safety PPE.
Specifications: Diameter: 15/16" (0.9375", about 23.8 mm). Use with standard router setups and appropriate shank sizing as per your router model. For best results, match your stock dimensions and finish with a compatible sanding routine.
