Whiteside Raised Panel Router Bits

Raised panel router bits are specialized cutting tools used in woodworking to create raised panels for cabinet doors, paneling, and other decorative applications. These bits are designed to shape the edges and surfaces of the panel, giving it a raised, three-dimensional profile.

The cutter portion is responsible for shaping the front face and edges of the panel, while the backcutter (if equiped) creates a relief cut on the backside of the panel.

The cutter portion of the raised panel router bit features a large cutting edge that shapes the front face of the panel. This cutting edge can have various profiles, such as ogee, cove, roundover, or bevel, which add decorative details to the raised panel.
