Rabbet: (răb′Ät) also re·bate (rē′bÄt′,răb′Ät)
A cut or groove along or near the edge of a piece of wood that allows another piece to fit into it to form a joint.
By choosing alternative bearings with a larger outside diameter, the depth of cut can be reduced. The cutting height can be increased with multiple passes.
Refer to the specification tab for the optonal alternative bearing choices offered by us.
PRO-TECH router bits are manufactured in Taiwan.
Router Bit Maintenance
_x000D_Fortunately, this is pretty easy. The best way to prolong the life of a router _x000D_ bit is to keep it clean. And what you need to do varies with the type of bit._x000D_
_x000D_Note: Sharpening is extremely important too.
_x000D_Bits with Bearings:
_x000D_To clean bits with bearings, first, remove the bearing. Then clean the bit as _x000D_ you did with non-bearing bits.
_x000D_It's important to remove the bearings because even though router bearings are _x000D_ 'sealed,' resin remover can sneak in and dissolve the bearing grease. If this were _x000D_ to happen, you would be faced with the problem of trying to lubricate a sealed bearing._x000D_
_x000D_Despite the claims of bearing grease sellers, we've never had much luck with _x000D_ this. Once that grease is gone, just go buy a new bearing.
_x000D_Bit Shanks:
_x000D_Periodically inspect the shanks of your router bits for rust or burrs. Either _x000D_ of these can be removed quickly with ScotchBrite®. Left on, they can _x000D_ interfere with your ability to properly tighten the bit in the collet.
