Design Custom Staircases: Freud 99-442 1-3/16 Inch Handrail Router Bit for Professional Lower Profiles

Create bespoke banisters and elegant stair railings with the Freud 99-442 Handrail Router Bit. Designed to mill the essential lower profile of a handrail, this bit allows woodworkers and contractors to craft custom architectural details that match any interior decor. By milling your own stock, you can select the perfect wood species—whether it's rich mahogany, durable oak, or paint-grade pine—saving significant costs over purchasing pre-made millwork while achieving a higher quality finish.

Engineered for precision and longevity, the 99-442 features Freud's exclusive TiCo™ Hi-Density Carbide, delivering a razor-sharp edge that withstands the rigors of cutting hardwood. The bit is finished with the signature Perma-SHIELD® Non-Stick Coating to reduce friction, heat buildup, and pitch accumulation, ensuring burn-free cuts and extended tool life. For a complete handrail system, this lower-profile bit pairs perfectly with Freud top-profile bits (such as 99-450, 99-452, or 99-027, sold separately). Due to the large profile, this bit is designed for safe use in table-mounted routers or CNC machines only.

Key Features

  • Custom Millwork: Creates the lower profile for industry-standard handrails, perfect for renovations and new construction.
  • Matched System: Designed to pair seamlessly with Freud top-profile bits (99-450, 99-452, or 99-027) for a complete railing.
  • TiCo™ Hi-Density Carbide: Specially formulated carbide blend provides a sharper edge and longer cutting life in hardwoods and softwoods.
  • Perma-SHIELD® Coating: Protects the bit from heat, rust, and corrosion while preventing pitch buildup.
  • Versatile Compatibility: Ideal for use on CNC machines and table-mounted portable routers (1/2" collet required).
  • Smooth Finish: Precision-ground cutters produce stain-grade surfaces that require minimal sanding.

(1) Freud 1-3/16" Diameter Handrail Router Bit with 1/2" Shank (99-442)

Just what I needed
Size: 4 Panel-136"W, Color: Black
I have a one bedroom apt and my son stays with me half the time. He has an air mattress in the living room until I can afford a 2 bedroom. But he’s in his early teens and needs privacy. I bought this after looking online at may of these. I’m so glad I went with this one. It covers his air mattress 3/4 of the way around and now he has his own little nook. I also gave him some led lamps and he might it like his own little nightclub. He LOVES it. And now he’s excited to be in his space. The quality is so good and there’s no see through, no gaps, it’s perfect.

Instructions could be clearer, but assembles well and is sturdy
Size: 3 Panel-102"W, Color: Black
The only reason for the lack of a star is the iffy instructions. There are a few different washers and the instructions could make the difference a LOT easier to understand and thereby reduce the need to re-do things. Other than that, the panels were easy to assemble and the parts fit well together. I was able to disassemble the screens and store them for a future use, which is nice. One caution - the feet that make the panels stand up will likely be a trip hazard, so be sure to plan the location for this device carefully.

Awesome product!!!
Size: 3 Panel-102"W, Color: Beige, Size: 3 Panel-102"W, Color: Beige
This thing is really awesome. I actually bought 2 of them and made myself a nice little enclosure to keep out any peeping Toms while I’m trying to work on my summer tan. What I was looking for is FULL privacy and this DEFINITELY provides that. Fabric is completely opaque, you cannot see anything through it which is exactly what I needed. Another huge bonus is the strips of fabric to cover the spaces in between the panels, giving TRUE privacy. This is a really well-made product, great design, great structure, and pretty easy to put together overall. The only downside is that with strong gusts of wind, it wants to tip over so as you can see I secured the bottom feet with a couple bricks to make it stable and that did the trick. But to me that is a minor inconvenience given all its other great aspects. So many other privacy dividers were still see-through… totally defeating the purpose. But this one is absolutely full privacy and PERFECT for what I needed it for!!!

Broke within an hour of assembly.
Size: 6 Panel-120"W, Color: Beige
This is of horrible quality. Within an hour of building, the feet support were broken on both ends, where they spin in place & do not stay straight to hold the divider up. Pieces of the plastic on the feet were broken simply from assembling the product. The covers for the metal poles were the only reason I bought this divider instead of other similar products, however those only cover one side of the metal poles so they are still visible from the other side. Two of these covers were also torn & not useable within an hour of assembly, one was already partially ripped on arrival & the other one was ripped simply during assembly of the product. I do not recommend this item & would have returned if I was still in the return window. I missed the return window because the product was bought during the holidays & I didn’t have time to mess with the return. I have not been able to use this product even once, the broken feet which do not stay in place make it very unstable & dangerous.
