Bearings are metric (5/5), Sep 2, 2019

By Larry Miller (Jonestown PA US)

7805 and 7807 were purchased some time a ago. I wanted to trim an interior room door blank to fit as a replacement. I went to put a 3/6" ID x 3/8 OD bearing on the bit and it was too small. According to the replacement bearing list on the MLCS site there are some bits that require a metric bearing.
Also, if the door is 1-3/8" thick don't buy a bit with 2" cutting length and expect to trim a door. My P-C router had more bit hanging out that I could handle with a standard base mounted.


1/4" Diameter Flush Trim (3/5), Oct 14, 2014

By Carson DeMille (Richfield Ut US)

I ordered the 1/4" diameter by 1" cutting length flush cut bit and when I used it the first time the bearing broke. I got a quick replacement from MLCS, but the replacement seems to have a rough rolling bearing which is not smooth at all. I've noticed with both bits that the bearing is too narrow and gouges the pattern as the bearing rolls along. They really need to put a taller bearing on this bit or put two bearings on it. Even being really careful, this bearing tends to gouge the pattern or surface that it touches. I don't have this problem with other bits.

  • Shear Angle Flush Trim Router Bits

  • Reviews
The shear angle slices wood cleanly
2 flute, carbide tipped with totally enclosed ball bearing guides. The shear angle cutting flutes produces a smoother cut than the traditional straight fluted bits. Instead of chopping at the wood fibers at a 90º angle, the shear angle design allows for a smoother shear angle, slicing cut. Use this bit to eliminate tear-out problems from routing end or cross grain on very hard woods.

Shear cut bit (5/5), May 28, 2012

By Roy Smith (Barrington IL US)

I love this bit. It shears through the work piece rather than chops. This bit leaves a nice, clean edge on veneered plywood. No splitters. Difficult cuts, like going over knots, is not a problem. An excellent value.
Eagle, please add a 2" cut length model and add a removable top bearing. Thanks.


Robert de Jong (5/5), Apr 9, 2012

By Riobert de Jong (Vineland Ne US)

Top notch bit for jointing edges and for final shaving of that last smoothing 1/32" from the edge. Great bit.


7809 (3/5), Jun 14, 2011

By Charles (Portland OR US)

I have used this about 5 times so far and the cut is good and noticed that the bearing has some play in it so the bearing will need to be replaced soon. I use this to cut acrylic and the things I make are for sale and are expensive so I will not be using this bit any more for finishing, but maybe for initial trimming before glue up, maybe.


Shear Angle Flush Trim Bit (#7809) (5/5), Nov 26, 2008

By Jim Crockett (Jay ME US)

Have used this bit often when template routing and always get clean edges with no chips or tear-out. Can't ask for more than this!

  • Pattern / Flush Trim Router Bits

Ideal for template routing
2 flute, carbide tipped with totally enclosed ball bearing guides. The top mounted bearing is ideal for template routing. In addition to template routing these bits are convenient for flush trimming in many applications where a bottom mounted bearing is not practical.

High Quality at Low Price (5/5), Oct 3, 2011

By Colt W. Knight (San Angelo Te US)

I have been looking for a 1/2" x 1/2" pattern bit for awhile to use on my guitar work. This bit saves me a ton of work, and performs exactly like it should.

Great bit (5/5), Sep 20, 2011

By Abel Tripoli (Bariloche Ri AR)

Recently I had the chance to purchase one of these bits for working with templates, is just amazing the time I saved since I don`t have to change bits anymore, just adjusting the bit height I can always run the stock along the grain, which is a way safer and results much smoother. If you do some template work this is the right bit to go.


Top & Bottom Bearing (5/5), Aug 1, 2009

By Bernhard List (Willmenrod Rh DE)

The best idea since sliced bread *******
I have made 8 arched windows for my old watermill during the barn restoration and I used 3/8th MDF templates and got perfect results. Now my barnwindows are better then most people have for the home they live in. I am an Airline pilot and not a professional woodworker and nobody thought I could do it .... they apologized, and I am darn proud of those windows.
There are not enough Stars (max 5) here to really rate this design ..... TOP.

Accurately remove material
Remove precise amounts of material from the edge of doors or very large panels, or whenever size makes it difficult to use a router table. By varying the bottom bearing diameter, you can accurately remove 1/16", 1/8" or 3/16" in two passes. Kits are available for stock up to 1-3/8" thick, or 2" thick. Kit includes 3/4" Top & Bottom Bearing Flush Trim/Pattern Bits with two 3/4" OD bearings, three additional bearings (5/8", 1/2", and 3/8" OD), and a hex key.
(When using the bit, for the first pass adjust the bottom bearing to run at the bottom of your stock, removing the designated amount from the top of the stock. For the second pass, readjust the bit height to allow the top bearing to run along the previously cut top of your stock, completing the trimming operation).

Used for the first time! Great job sharp and accurate!!


DIYer (4/5), Dec 25, 2012

Works well for trimming things like doors. It should be done prior to mortising latch bolt. I would recommend it to others.

Awesome buy it now (5/5), Dec 17, 2015

By Keith veronesi (Fuquay Varina NC US)

I have used this bit to form a decorative touch to clocks and boxes, hide seams. It's awesome. Definitely worth the money. I even bought it as a gift to a fellow woodworker.
