Harvey Tool 799008 Diamond Pattern Router Bit End Mill

Product Description

The HARVEY TOOL 799008 is a diamond pattern router bit designed for precise milling in composite materials. It features an 8-flute end mill geometry with a CVD diamond coating applied over a solid carbide substrate, producing a hard, low-friction cutting surface well suited to abrasive workpiece materials. The 1/8-inch cutter diameter and 1/8-inch shank diameter make it compatible with standard small-bore collets. With a 0.375-inch length of cut and 1.5-inch overall length, this bit is sized for controlled, shallow-to-mid-depth passes. CNC machinists and composite fabricators are the primary installers and operators.

This router bit is intended for machining composite materials such as carbon fiber, fiberglass, and similar abrasive laminates where tool wear is accelerated and surface finish requirements are tight. The CVD diamond finish resists the rapid edge degradation common in composite cutting, extending tool life compared to uncoated carbide. It is used in CNC router and milling setups where a 1/8-inch collet or tool holder is available. Applications include trimming, profiling, and slotting of composite panels in aerospace, automotive, and industrial fabrication environments.

Key Features

• CVD diamond coating for superior wear resistance in abrasive composite materials
• 8-flute design improves surface finish and chip evacuation in composite laminates
• Solid carbide construction provides rigidity and dimensional stability
• 1/8-inch shank fits standard small-bore CNC collets and tool holders
• End mill geometry enables slotting, profiling, and trimming operations
• Compact 0.375-inch length of cut reduces deflection in shallow-pass applications

Compatibility

Designed for use in CNC routers and milling machines equipped with a 1/8-inch collet, primarily for machining composite materials.

Installation Notes

Installation and operation should be performed by qualified CNC machinists or composite fabrication technicians. Power down and de-energize the spindle completely before inserting or removing the bit from the collet. Verify collet condition and ensure proper seating depth before operation. Do not exceed the recommended depth-of-cut for the shank diameter, as this is a small-diameter tool susceptible to deflection and breakage under excessive lateral load.
