Festool HW S8 D18-90° (ALU) V-Groove Cutter 18mm 90°

At a Glance: Carbide-tipped 90° V-groove cutter with 18 mm diameter, 8 mm cutting length and 8 mm shank, specially designed for machining aluminium composite panels.

The Festool HW S8 D18-90° (ALU) is a specialised V-groove cutter developed specifically for accurately machining aluminium composite panels. Its 90° cutting geometry produces a precise V-shaped groove that allows composite panels to be folded cleanly and accurately after routing, making it especially useful for cladding, display construction, sign work, interior fit-outs and architectural fabrication. The carbide-tipped cutting edges provide excellent durability, while the 18 mm cutter diameter and 8 mm cutting length are engineered for controlled routing of aluminium composite sheet materials. Used together with a compatible Festool router and guide rail, this cutter makes it possible to produce straight, repeatable folding grooves with professional accuracy.

Purpose-built for folding aluminium composite panels

This cutter is not simply a general-purpose decorative V-groove bit. It is specifically designed to machine a precise 90° groove into aluminium composite panels so the remaining material can act as a controlled folding line. When used correctly with a suitable router and guide rail, it allows clean, straight and repeatable folds for professional panel fabrication.

Product highlights

  • Specially designed for aluminium composite panels: Developed for accurate machining of composite sheet materials used in fabrication and cladding work.
  • 90° V-groove profile: Creates the correct groove geometry for precise folding operations.
  • 18 mm cutter diameter: Provides the specified profile geometry required for controlled panel machining.
  • Carbide-tipped cutting edges: Offers excellent wear resistance and durability when routing aluminium composite materials.
  • 8 mm shank: Compatible with suitable Festool routers using an 8 mm collet.
  • 8 mm cutting length: Compact cutting geometry suited to composite panel routing.
  • Guide-rail compatible workflow: Designed to be used with a router and guide rail for straight, repeatable folding grooves.

Product Compatibility

  • Festool routers with 8 mm collet: Suitable for compatible Festool routers equipped with the correct 8 mm clamping collet.
  • Festool guide rail system: Recommended for producing long, straight and accurately positioned grooves.
  • Aluminium composite panels: Specifically designed for machining composite panels with aluminium outer skins and a core layer.
  • Panel folding applications: Ideal where a routed V-groove is required to create a controlled folding line.

Special-purpose cutter

The HW S8 D18-90° (ALU) is specifically intended for aluminium composite panel machining. It should not be selected purely as a general-purpose woodworking V-groove cutter when the application requires different cutting geometry or material suitability.
