Osg 20611216 Diamond Pattern Router Bit 3/16 in Solid Carbide

Product Description

The OSG 20611216 is a diamond pattern router bit designed for precision routing of advanced composite materials. Built from solid carbide and coated with a diamond finish, this bit delivers the hardness and wear resistance needed to cut through abrasive materials like carbon fiber, carbon composite, and honeycomb core without premature edge failure. It features an 8-flute geometry with a square end type, a cutter diameter of 0.1875 inches, and a length of cut of 0.5625 inches. The overall length is 2 inches. This bit is typically installed and operated by CNC machinists and composite fabricators working in aerospace, automotive, or specialty manufacturing environments.

This router bit is suited for machining carbon, carbon fiber, and honeycomb core materials where tool life and edge quality are critical. The diamond coating reduces friction and heat buildup during high-speed routing passes, making it a practical choice for production environments that run these abrasive substrates regularly. The 3/16 inch shank diameter is compatible with standard collet setups found on CNC routers and high-speed spindles used in composite part fabrication shops.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction for high rigidity and wear resistance in abrasive composite materials
• Diamond coating reduces heat and friction during routing of carbon fiber and honeycomb core
• 8-flute design provides improved surface finish and chip evacuation per pass
• Square end type for flat-bottom cuts and profiling operations
• 0.1875 inch cutter diameter with 0.5625 inch length of cut for controlled, precise routing paths
• 2 inch overall length fits standard CNC router collet configurations

Compatibility

Designed for use with carbon, carbon fiber, and honeycomb core materials. Compatible with CNC routers and high-speed spindles using a 3/16 inch collet. Specific machine compatibility should be confirmed against collet size and spindle speed ratings prior to installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified CNC machinist or tooling technician. Ensure the spindle is fully powered down and locked out before inserting or removing the bit from the collet. Confirm the collet is clean and free of debris before seating the shank to the correct insertion depth. Do not exceed the tool manufacturer's recommended spindle speed for the cutter diameter and material being processed.
