Osg 20612316 Diamond Router Bit 0.25in 8-flute Solid Carbide

Product Description

The OSG 20612316 is a diamond pattern router bit designed for precision routing of composite and advanced materials. Built from solid carbide with a diamond coating, it delivers the hardness and edge retention needed when cutting carbon fiber, carbon composites, and honeycomb core materials. The bit features an 8-flute configuration with a 0.25 inch cutter diameter, a 0.75 inch length of cut, and a square end geometry. The diamond finish reduces heat buildup and abrasive wear during high-cycle cutting operations. This tool is suited for CNC routing applications where standard carbide tooling degrades rapidly due to abrasive workpiece materials.

This router bit is intended for use in CNC machining centers and high-speed routing operations involving advanced composite materials including carbon fiber, carbon composite laminates, and honeycomb core panels. It is commonly used in aerospace fabrication, motorsports component manufacturing, and specialty composite work where clean, burr-free edges are required. The 1/4 inch shank diameter fits standard router collets used across a wide range of CNC routing platforms. Licensed machinists and composite fabrication specialists are the primary installers and operators of this tooling.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction provides rigidity and wear resistance in abrasive composite materials
• Diamond coating extends tool life and reduces heat generation during cutting
• 8-flute design improves chip evacuation and surface finish quality
• Square end geometry produces clean, flat-bottomed cuts and slots
• 0.25 inch cutter diameter and 0.75 inch length of cut suit detail routing and profiling tasks
• 1/4 inch shank fits standard CNC router collets without adapters

Compatibility

Designed for routing carbon, carbon fiber, and honeycomb core materials. Compatible with CNC routers and machining centers equipped with a 1/4 inch collet. Verify spindle speed and feed rate parameters for the specific composite substrate before use.

Installation Notes

This tooling is installed and operated by machinists or composite fabrication technicians. Power down and lock out the spindle before changing tooling. Seat the shank fully and evenly in the collet before tightening to the collet nut torque specification listed in the machine manufacturer documentation. Always wear appropriate respiratory and eye protection when routing carbon fiber or composite materials, as the resulting dust and particulate are hazardous.
