"Brass Piloted Bits - Sneaky Smooth" "Bits with metal pilots were around long berfore bearing-guided bits, but you don't see many anymore. That's because the spinning pilots would burn the wood. MLCS revamped the idea with a brass pilot that runs cooler. This small pilot lets you rout into tight spaces and inside corners."5 Piece Brass Piloted Router Bit Set

The right bit for specialty jobs. Effective when narrow spaces are present. Quick, light touch is required to avoid burning wood. Practice before use on work piece is highly recommended.

With the 3 year warranty, the bits are good buys.
I have used them successfully with good results.
They do indeed require a light touch to keep the brass ferrule from eventually coming off and ruining the wood.
I recommend these bits for difficult inside corner work, and with a deft touch, will provide good use.
I had to replace only two of the bits under their generous 3 yr. warranty.

If you are doing the type of intricate routing shown in the picture, then you have no choice but to use a bit like this. However, these are like the old steel guide bits used before manufacturers started mounting ball bearings. As with those bits, if you apply much pressure on the router, the spinning guide will dig in and/or burn the piece badly. A light touch is needed. Best use is when nothing else is available.

THESE ROUTER BITS ARE VERY GOOD WHEN YOU REQUIRE TO GET INTO TIGHT CORNERS LIKE INTARSIA PROJECTS.
