SGS Tool Company has introduced its new line of composite cutting tools. The new SGS program addresses the unique challenges of cutting composites by offering a series of four new tools and one line expansion.

The line includes:

Series 120 8 Facet Drill: Designed to create accurate holes without splintering or delamination. The stable, double margin construction drill is manufactured with SGS’ Di‐NAMITE crystalline diamond coating for even wear, extended tool life and improved finishes.

Series 20 and New Series 31 Carbon Composite Routers: Includes the addition of the Series 31 with fewer and deeper flutes than the original Series 20 CCR to avoid clogging during demanding applications. Both the new Series 31 and the Series 20 CCR expansion are available with or without SGS’ Di‐NAMITE coating.

Series 25 Compression Router: For milling and finishing milling Carbon Composite material that incorporates a left and right hand helix, compressing the work piece and eliminating the fraying of material. Available with or without SGS’ Di‐NAMITE coating.

Series 27 Variable Geometry Slow Helix End Mill: Designed for milling highly abrasive materials. Available with or without SGS’ Di‐NAMITE coating.

“Our innovative tool technologies combine substrate, geometry, edge preparation and coating for an optimal combination that can withstand the complex conditions of composites. We have identified the major applications and will continue to design complete tooling solutions for this dynamic material group,” says Jason Wells, Product Manager at SGS Tool Company.
