If trimming laminate materials with precise cuts and edging is how you want to work, then Bits4Blokes has the parts for you. Whether you’re loading up your laminate trimmer or router, we have the bits you need for working with laminate materials. Like a BLT sandwich, laminates have many layers. They are the result of bonding multiple materials together. These end products—which we’ll refer to as ‘composite materials’ or ‘laminates’—typically hold together via heat, pressure, adhesion or a combination of these methods.
Due to their versatility and specific properties, laminates are commonplace across various industries and applications. If you want a laminate trim, you’ll need to ensure you’re buying the right router bits for the job.
If you want a fine laminate trim, it’s important to choose the right router bit. Less heavy-duty than solid-surface router bits, trim router bits have some key features that set them apart from others. For one thing, they typically have a flush trim profile featuring a straight cutting edge—which, we suppose, makes them the OG in cutting-edge equipment. For another thing, they often come with a pilot bearing positioned at the tip. Finally, given the abrasive nature of laminate materials, you’ll often find that trimmer bits have inherent carbide-tipped cutting edges, which ensures a longer life for your tool.
There are many everyday applications for laminate materials, including kitchen countertops, furniture surfaces, cabinetry and wall panels. Trimming laminate materials using the right edging is important when working with these more stubborn materials.
If laminate trimmer bits aren’t quite right for the task at hand, we have many other router bits sets available. If you need something stronger, solid-surface router bits can cut through ultra-abrasive or thick materials. If you need something more mainstream, straight router bits may just do the trick.
