Frequently Asked Questions

What router speed should I use with Trend profile scribing bits?

For most profile scribing operations, Trend recommends router speeds between 16,000-20,000 RPM depending on the bit diameter and material being cut. Larger diameter bits require slower speeds, whilst smaller profiles can handle higher RPM. Always consult the specific bit's documentation for optimal settings.

Can Trend profile scribing bits be used in a router table?

Yes, Trend profile scribing bits are ideal for router table use, which actually provides better control and consistency for this type of work. Ensure your router table is securely mounted and use appropriate guards and push sticks when working with these precision cutters.

How do I maintain my Trend scribing bits?

Clean your Trend scribing bits after each use with a pitch and resin remover, then apply a light coating of protective oil. Store them in their original packaging or a dedicated bit holder to protect the cutting edges. Professional resharpening is available when performance begins to decline.
