Frequently Asked Questions

What router speed should I use with Trend hinge cutting bits?

For optimal results, operate Trend hinge cutting bits at speeds between 16,000-18,000 RPM. Always consult the specific bit's documentation and make test cuts in scrap material to verify settings before working on finished pieces.
