Product information

Festool HW S8 D42/13/R6+12 Carbide Profile Cutter At a Glance: Precision 42 mm carbide profile cutter with an 8 mm shank and compound R6/R12 radii, designed for producing decorative profiled inlays and complementary furniture-front profiles together with Festool profile radius cutter 491131. The Festool HW S8 D42/13/R6+12 is a professional carbide profile cutter developed for accurately machining decorative profiles in furniture and joinery components. Its carefully engineered compound geometry combines a 6 mm radius with a 12 mm radius in a single 42 mm-diameter cutter, allowing attractive profiled inlays and shaped furniture-front details to be produced with excellent repeatability. Festool specifically designed this cutter with a profile that corresponds to profile radius cutter 491131, making the two cutters an ideal combination when complementary profiles are required for decorative furniture fronts. Manufactured from first-class tool steel and fitted with wear-resistant carbide cutting edges, the cutter offers high stability, excellent concentric running accuracy, clean contours and a long professional service life. With an 8 mm shank, 13 mm cutting length and compact 50 mm overall length, it is a precise specialist cutter for cabinetmakers, furniture manufacturers, joiners and professional woodworkers looking to create refined decorative edge and panel profiles. Two radii in one precision profile The defining feature of the HW S8 D42/13/R6+12 is its compound R6 and R12 cutting geometry. Rather than creating a simple single-radius roundover, the cutter produces a more detailed decorative contour using two carefully matched radii. This allows furniture fronts, inserts and profiled details to be given greater visual depth while maintaining excellent repeatability from one component to the next.
