The bearing type impacts both the ease of use and the quality of the cut, it guides the bit along the workpiece for clean ,precise, consistent profiles. The cove router bits in this category feature a lower ball bearing guide, which allows for smooth operation, reduces friction, and helps prevent burning or chipping of the wood. In my shop I use the Amana Tool 49130, which has a replaceable bearings and multiple sizes, providing the best outcome for the different routing setups. Having a variety of bearing configurations available, lets me choose a bit that provides perfect control and the finish I need for complete customer satisfaction . The key to a great outcome is to only use quality bits , it's just the only way to go.
