Flooring Router Bits for Hardwood Tongue-and-Groove and Slip-Tongue Joinery Routing your own hardwood flooring joints gives you control over fit, profile, and wood species that factory-milled flooring cannot always provide. This focused collection offers two purpose-built solutions: a complete floor-making router bit set and a slip-tongue bit kit for joining boards edge-to-edge during installation. The Floor Making Router Bit Set includes the bits needed to mill both the tongue and groove profiles on hardwood flooring boards, allowing you to produce custom flooring from rough lumber. The Slip Tongue Flooring Router Bit with Bearing Kit cuts a centered groove on both edges of a board so a separate spline (slip tongue) can join the two pieces — a technique often used when re-directing flooring layout or butting two groove edges together.
