The groove it cuts is a roundover on each side and flat on the bottom.It can be used to create decorative grooves in panels or pilasters, a faux raised panel look in solid doors, or use with a fence in a router table for making round over or beaded edges.

About Whiteside
Whiteside Machine Company was founded in 1970 in Bill Whiteside’s basement where he supplied tooling to NC’s huge furniture making industry. Whiteside is still family-owned but has now grown to occupy a 40,000 square foot factory in Claremont, NC.
Whiteside offers a full range of router bits. Their rigid quality control and precision manufacturing techniques have repeatedly resulted in highest ratings in Fine Woodworkingmagazine tool reviews.
In the years that we’ve sold Whiteside router bits, we’ve experienced the company’s commitment to excellent quality and superb customer service. We think you’ll be pleased each time you use these fine tools in your shop.
