1-11/16" (dia.) Premier Adjustable Rail & Stile Bit with 1/2" shank (round over bead), 3-3/4" overall length
From the Manufacturer
Imagine two router bits that create any door in 5/8-Inch to 1-1/4-Inch door thickness range, create "rattle free" flat panel doors, create any length long tenon construction and more. That's what Freud's new Premier Adjustable Rail & Stile router bit systems do. They work exactly like traditional rail and stile router bits to enhance door construction. Adjustable shims enable both a tight fit when using plywood panels and the ability to use thick panels ( from 5.5mm to 6.35mm ). The unique cutter geometry virtually eliminates tearout. Top portion of cutter, including bearing and spindle, is removed to produce the front of the long tenon profile for blind tenons, through tenons, or bridle joints. Bits feature Freud's Perma-Shield coating that reduces heat and pitch build up along with rust, and Freud's TiCo Hi-Density Carbide to maximize bit life and material finish. Optional cutters are available for double profile doors (99-860) and glass panel doors (54-760) with variable thicknesses and long tenons for perfecting matching profiles on all doors because it's the same set of router bits. This set produces a quarter round profile and all bits have 1/2-Inch shanks.

Router bits were shipped in plastic envelope, no padding, bits were loose inside the plastic case, knocking against each other, chipped cutter, and they were used (sawdust present in crevices). Returned and purchased locally.

It took me 20 or 30 minutes to set the bits up for the plywood panel I was using but I'm very Happy with the results. I'm doing all the doors in my kitchen with this setup using a bosch 1617 on a router table. The process is going significantly faster than I expected and it's pretty addictive.

These milled the rails and stiles well. My only problem was that the plywood I was using was thinner than I could mill the slots. With no shims, the cutter was still too wide so the panel fit a little too loosely, but not enough to be unusable. Otherwise, these worked fine.

As a millwork restoration worker I love the versatility of this product. Can be set up for any thickness panel. Smooth cutting bits, no tear-out.

Great set, but my fault that I did not recognize that it is a Round over BEAD profile. I needed a thumbnail, without the extra step in it to match existing doors. I have been using a Freud set for the past 25 years and wanted to get a new on for this project, but I guess I will be using the old ones. I can not even find a replacement here on Amazon for what I have, only the bead set.If this is the profile you want, great bits and price!

These router bits worked great. Made kitchen doors and face plates out of maple and turned out great. Nice to adjust the cutter plates to except different sizes of 1/4" birch plywood. Worked great. The only problem was getting the bits out of the plastic storage case for the first time. Bits are 'held' in by a rubber grommet. After trying to pull them out without success, I rotated the bits (with leather gloves) until the grommet let go - then pulled them out. Would definitely order Freud bits again.

This is my fourth rail and stile set and my first from Freud. Why, I am not sure because this is the best one of the bunch! It is smooth cutting and I hqve zero tearout with this set. But what I like the most is you only have to set the fence one time. All of my other sets like this require setting the fence independently for each bit, so this is a time saver for sure.

Great bit. Kit includes the allen key and shims. Make perfect joints And I mean Perfect with easy setup and minimal tearout. I used it to make 32 mortise and tenons in walnut hope chest. Note the min. stock thickness is 3/4" and if you have 1/4" panels the back of the frame will be about 1/8".

These adjustable bits (model 99-763 roundover type) are the fix for rail & stile construction. For me, I had to get used to their setup steps and which one to use first. That is important. There are videos on you tube that demonstrate how to setup and use the bits: just search for "Freud rail & stile" on you tube.Since the shims are measured in mm's, not inches, I used a digital caliper. The door panels are not exactly 3/8" (9.525 mm), they are 10.96/32 (approx 8.70 mm). So much for any wood material being standard or uniform in measurement these days. The bits adjusted with a bit of "cut & measure) steps until the panels fit the frame snug as can be without preventing glue up.Freud tech support (Mike) was very helpful and patient with me and even emailed the factory technical drawings of the bits. I need visual aids now after so many years of old fashioned woodworking...I recommend these bits and the other various rail & stile type to all fellow woodworkers, you will not be disappointed.
