DIAMOND BALL MILLING HEAD, Ø1.8

Large‑Diameter Diamond‑Coated Ball Cutter for Hard Materials & High‑Control Surface Refinement

The Diamond Ball Milling Head – Ø1.8" is a heavy‑duty, precision finishing tool designed for Picote robotic cutter systems. With its large spherical profile and diamond‑coated cutting surface, this head excels at removing extremely hard materials and producing smooth, refined surfaces inside 4–8" pipelines.

Diamond tooling offers exceptional abrasion resistance and maintains cutting performance where carbide tools wear quickly. The oversized Ø1.8" ball geometry provides broad, stable wall contact, making it ideal for smoothing reinstatement openings, refining surfaces after aggressive milling, and removing mineral buildup or concrete residue with controlled, even pressure.

Key Features

• Diamond‑coated cutting surface: Delivers superior wear resistance and long service life when working on concrete, vitrified clay, mineral deposits, and hardened CIPP resin.
• Large 1.8" ball geometry: Provides wide, stable contact with the pipe wall for smooth, controlled milling and consistent surface refinement.
• Exceptional finishing capability: Diamond grit produces a cleaner, more uniform finish than carbide, reducing chatter and minimizing the risk of over‑cutting.
• Ideal for hard‑material removal: Excels at grinding down concrete residue, mineral scale, and other high‑abrasion materials that quickly degrade carbide cutters.
• Stable at high RPMs: Balanced for robotic cutter operation, ensuring predictable tool behavior and uniform material removal.
• Perfect for post‑milling refinement: Often used after aggressive cutting to smooth reinstatement edges and prepare surfaces for final inspection or additional rehabilitation steps.
