Design Custom Staircases: Freud 99-442 1-3/16 Inch Handrail Router Bit for Professional Lower Profiles
Create bespoke banisters and elegant stair railings with the Freud 99-442 Handrail Router Bit. Designed to mill the essential lower profile of a handrail, this bit allows woodworkers and contractors to craft custom architectural details that match any interior decor. By milling your own stock, you can select the perfect wood species—whether it's rich mahogany, durable oak, or paint-grade pine—saving significant costs over purchasing pre-made millwork while achieving a higher quality finish.
Engineered for precision and longevity, the 99-442 features Freud's exclusive TiCo™ Hi-Density Carbide, delivering a razor-sharp edge that withstands the rigors of cutting hardwood. The bit is finished with the signature Perma-SHIELD® Non-Stick Coating to reduce friction, heat buildup, and pitch accumulation, ensuring burn-free cuts and extended tool life. For a complete handrail system, this lower-profile bit pairs perfectly with Freud top-profile bits (such as 99-450, 99-452, or 99-027, sold separately). Due to the large profile, this bit is designed for safe use in table-mounted routers or CNC machines only.
Key Features
- Custom Millwork: Creates the lower profile for industry-standard handrails, perfect for renovations and new construction.
- Matched System: Designed to pair seamlessly with Freud top-profile bits (99-450, 99-452, or 99-027) for a complete railing.
- TiCo™ Hi-Density Carbide: Specially formulated carbide blend provides a sharper edge and longer cutting life in hardwoods and softwoods.
- Perma-SHIELD® Coating: Protects the bit from heat, rust, and corrosion while preventing pitch buildup.
- Versatile Compatibility: Ideal for use on CNC machines and table-mounted portable routers (1/2" collet required).
- Smooth Finish: Precision-ground cutters produce stain-grade surfaces that require minimal sanding.
