Trend Ball Groover 1/2" Shank Router Cutter

The Trend Ball Groover 1/2" Shank Router Cutter is a specialist slotting and grooving bit designed for cutting semi-circular channels in timber and wood-based materials.

Its primary application is concealing pipes and cables within joinery, making it a practical choice for carpenters and joiners working on installations where a clean, uncluttered finish is required. The rounded profile creates a precise ball-shaped groove that neatly accommodates pipework or cabling beneath surface coverings.

The partial curve of this router cutter can also be used to produce decorative edge profiles, offering versatility beyond purely functional grooving work. Note that an initial slot must be cut before using the ball groover — this is an essential step in the process and should be factored into your workflow.

Features and Benefits:
• Conceals pipes and cables within timber for a clean finish
• Partial curve suitable for decorative edge profiling
• 1/2" shank for secure fitment in compatible router tables and hand routers
