Roundover HW R3-OFK 500 Z1

The Festool 578378 Roundover Cutter is designed for precise edge profiling with the Festool OFK 500 edge router. Featuring a 3mm radius, this carbide cutter creates a clearly defined rounded edge on solid wood, laminate, and suitable plastic edge banding. It is ideal for cabinetry, furniture making, and woodworking projects that require a smooth, professional edge finish.

The cutter features a reversible Z1 single-knife design, allowing the carbide knife to be rotated to a fresh cutting edge when the original becomes worn. This helps extend the useful life of the cutter before replacement is necessary.

With its 8mm shank, the cutter is designed for use with the Festool OFK 500. It is also compatible with the Festool KLS-D 15.8-OFK ball bearing guide (490249), sold separately, for surface-guided operation.
