Jabro routers from Seco Tools Inc. are for machining composite materials. The new family has five different solid-carbide styles with cylindrical shanks from 3.0mm to 20.0mm in diameter. A DURA CVD diamond coating is on each router. The DURA coating, which is thicker than a traditional CVD coating, provides an enhanced thermal and abrasive barrier to effectively cut composites, the company reports.

The router styles include the JC840 left-hand helix for slotting, the JC850 light helix ballnose for 3-D copy milling, the JC860 honeycomb for slotting and side milling, the JC870 diamond cut for problematic slotting and the JC880 light helix for slotting and side milling.
