Overview

Festool HW S8 D25,5/R6,35 KL Bearing-Guided Flute Cutter At a Glance: Concave profile cutter with a 6.35 mm radius, 25.5 mm cutting diameter, 12.7 mm cutting length and 8 mm shank. Includes a ball bearing guide for edge profiling. Add a graceful recessed curve to your woodworking with the Festool HW S8 D25,5/R6,35 KL Flute Cutter. This bearing-guided profile cutter produces a concave cove detail along a suitable workpiece edge, making it useful for decorative furniture, trim and joinery work. Its carbide cutting edges form the 6.35 mm radius, while the guide bearing follows the reference edge to help maintain a consistent profile. The cutter can also be combined with an appropriate roundover cutter of the same radius when creating complementary profiles and counterprofiles. With a 25.5 mm cutting diameter, 12.7 mm cutting length and 54 mm overall length, it provides a practical profiling option for an appropriately equipped router with an 8 mm collet. Concave Curves for Decorative Edge Profiles A cove profile curves inward into the workpiece edge. Use this cutter to introduce a recessed curved detail, or combine the profile with a matching convex radius for a complementary woodworking arrangement. Product Highlights • 6.35 mm profile radius: Creates a defined concave curve along a suitable edge. • Bearing-guided operation: The ball bearing follows the reference surface during routing. • HW carbide cutting edges: Designed for woodworking profile-cutting applications. • 8 mm shank: Secures in the correct 8 mm router collet. • Complementary profile capability: Can be paired with a suitable roundover cutter of the same radius. • Compact working dimensions: 25.5 mm diameter, 12.7 mm cutting length and 54 mm overall length. Product Compatibility • Router collet: Requires a compatible router fitted with the correct 8 mm collet. • Machine clearance: The router base and guarding arrangement must accommodate the 25.5 mm cutter diameter. • Complementary roundover cutter: Festool HW S8 D25,5/R6,35 KL, article 491013, has the matching 6.35 mm convex radius and is available separately. • Replacement guide bearing: Festool D12,7 (2x), article 491383, is listed as an accessory for this flute cutter range. Compatibility note: Confirm the router's suitability, cutter clearance, shank insertion requirements and permitted operating speed before use. Matching profile radii still require accurate setup and test cuts to establish the intended fit.
