Forms: 5 rabit, 5–8 rabet, 6 rabat(e, -att, -ett, rabbott-, 8–9 rabbit, 7– rabbet. See also rebate.
[a. OF. rabat, rabbat the act of beating down, a check, abatement in price, recess in a wall, etc., n. from rabattre to beat back or down: see rebate v.]
I.
1. a. A channel, groove, or slot (usually of rectangular section) cut along the edge or face of a piece (or surface) of wood, stone, etc., and intended to receive the edge or end of another piece or pieces, or a tongue specially wrought on these to fit the groove. b. A rectangular recess made along a projecting angle or arris.
Both forms are extensively used in Carpentry in joining or framing wood, the two pieces being commonly either in the same plane or at right angles to each other. In a double rabbet (b) the shoulder on one piece fits into the rabbet of the other. In Masonry, a rabbet (b) is often made to receive the edge of a door, window, etc.; in picture-frames the rabbet receives the edges of the glass.
