Freud 5-1/2″ (Dia.) 2+2 Advanced Design Raised Panel Insert Shaper Cutter for 5/8″ Stock with 1-1/4″ bore #UP208-IC

Engineered for superior performance, the 5-1/2″ cutter employs an advanced 2+2 design that features a unique arrangement of two large cutters shearing upwards and two smaller ones shearing downwards, resulting in splinter-free finishes. Built with precision in mind, this tool utilizes Ultimate Precision Computer Balancing to ensure smooth and chatter-free cutting, while its kickback-reducing shoulder design enhances safety and control during operation. The durable carbide tips, crafted from Freud’s exclusive TiCo™ blend, are designed to maintain a sharp edge with minimal wear, providing an extended cutting life that significantly outlasts standard brazed carbide. Additionally, versatility is a hallmark of this cutter; the interchangeable knife design allows for easy swapping during sharpenings, making it a practical choice for those working with various materials such as hardwoods, softwoods, plywood, and MDF.
