Its 38mm cutter diameter and 12mm cutting length make it ideal for joinery, cabinetmaking, furniture production and general woodworking applications where clean, consistent rebate dimensions are essential.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike a conventional brazed router bit, this cutter uses reversible carbide blades that can be turned when one cutting edge becomes worn. This restores a sharp cutting edge without changing the cutter diameter, helping maintain dependable dimensional accuracy and extending the practical service life of the tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe fitted guide bearing follows the edge of the workpiece, allowing the cutter to produce a controlled rebate without requiring a separate parallel fence. By changing the ball bearing, the same cutter can produce rebate depths of 8mm, 9.5mm, 11mm, 12.6mm or 14.6mm, making it an exceptionally flexible addition to a professional routing setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cdiv class=\"definition-products\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOne precision cutter for multiple rebate depths\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe Festool HW S8 D38\/12 combines a robust cutter body, reversible carbide blades and interchangeable guide bearings to provide consistent, repeatable routing results.
