Infinity Cutting Tools - Rabetting-Bit Set 00-556
This rabbeting-bit set, with an uncommonly long 1-in. cutter and seven different bearings, can make rabbets of varying lengths and widths.Infinity Cutting Tools, based in Clearwater, Fla., is a new company distributing cutting-tool products for woodworkers. Among its line of router bits is a rabbeting-bit set, part number 00-556, that includes a 1 3/8-in.-dia. cutter and seven bearings with diameters that range from 3/8 in. to 1 3/8 in. By changing bearings you can create six different rabbet widths: 1/8 in., 1/4 in., 5/16 in., 3/8 in., 7/16 in., and 1/2 in. Or, with the largest bearing installed, the cutter becomes a flush-trimming bit.
The bit has a 1-in. cutting length, which is longer than other rabbeting bits I’ve seen on the market. Keep in mind, though, that if the rabbet is also a wide one, some routers might not have the power to make the cut in a single pass. That said, I was able to cut a 1/2-in.-wide by 1-in.-deep rabbet in one pass, albeit a slow one, with a 2-hp router mounted in a router table.
