Frequently Asked Questions

What shank sizes do Trend rebater bits come in?

Trend rebater bits are typically available in both 1/4" and 1/2" shank diameters to suit different router collet sizes. The 1/2" shank versions offer greater stability and are recommended for larger rebates or extended production runs, whilst 1/4" shanks work well for lighter duty applications and smaller routers.

Can Trend rebater bits be used with a router table?

Absolutely. Trend rebater bits are ideal for both handheld routing and router table use. Table mounting often provides better control and consistency, particularly for longer workpieces or when creating multiple identical rebates.

How do I maintain my Trend rebater bits?

Clean resin and pitch build-up regularly using a dedicated bit cleaner or white spirit. Inspect cutting edges for damage before each use, and store bits in protective cases to prevent impacts that could chip the carbide. Professional resharpening services can restore worn bits to near-original performance.
