0.0312" (1/32") x .158" LOC Diamond Flute Carbide Router, Fish Tail Tip, 1/8" Shank | R106A

This diamond flute carbide router features a 0.0312" (1/32") cutting diameter, .158" LOC, 1-1/2" overall length, and a 1/8" shank.

The diamond flute geometry uses a fine, multi-edge cutting pattern that is gentler on brittle and fracture-prone materials, helping reduce chipping, delamination, and edge damage during cutting.

This router is best suited for FR-4, G10, fiberglass, phenolic laminates, carbon fiber, and other abrasive composites, where maintaining clean edges and consistent performance is critical. For highly abrasive materials, diamond-coated (PCD) routers are recommended for extended tool life.

The up-cut design helps evacuate chips efficiently and improves bottom-edge cut quality, making it a strong choice for through-cutting operations.

This tool features a fish tail tip, ideal for controlled entry into brittle or layered materials, helping reduce chipping and delamination at the surface.
