Solid carbide diamond-flute PCB router bits, also called
diamond-cut router bits, are designed for routing
FR-4, G10, fiberglass, phenolic laminates, PCB material, and other abrasive composites.
Their fine multi-edge flute pattern helps reduce chipping and delamination when cutting board outlines,
slots, cutouts, and detailed profiles.

Diamond-Cut PCB Router Bits for Abrasive Materials
Diamond-flute routers use a fine, multi-edge cutting pattern that is
gentler on brittle and fracture-prone materials than more aggressive router geometries.
They are commonly used for PCB routing, fiberglass laminate routing, composite work, and other
applications where clean edges and controlled cutting are important.
-
Best for: FR-4 PCB material, G10, fiberglass, phenolic laminates,
abrasive composites, and similar brittle materials
-
Why choose it: Helps minimize chipping, delamination, and material fracture
while maintaining edge durability
-
Common uses: PCB board outlines, slots, cutouts, laminate trimming,
and composite routing
-
Tip options:
-
Fish Tail tips are often preferred for delicate entry into brittle materials
-
Drill Point tips are commonly used where repeated plunging
or added tip strength is required
Use the filters below to narrow the results by diameter, flute geometry,
plunge-tip style, and cutting direction to find the exact router bit needed for your application.
Routing carbon fiber? Because carbon fiber is extremely abrasive,
learn when a diamond-coated router is the better choice
for longer tool life and reduced edge wear.
