In one paragraph

Toolings.co.za is AM.CO.ZA's tooling site, and this page is its marble range: diamond-grit router bits for cutting, carving and engraving marble on a CNC stone router. On Buythis there are 31 marble-side SKUs in five shapes: coarse-grit ball nose bits for surface carving (TL-CB-…), coarse-grit tapered ball nose bits for 3D relief and fine detail (TL-CT-…), coarse-grit flat end mills for pockets, slots, levelling and lettering, many with a cooling slot (TL-CF-…), medium-grit light-gold flat end mills (TL-MF-…), and V-profile bits for V-carved lettering and lines (the coarse-grit TL-CV-S8T22-90 and the tungsten carbide TL-TV-… bits, which are also for granite). Coarse marble bits are rated at 24,000 RPM or more and a feed of 0.8 m/min; the medium-grit, tungsten carbide and the separate fine-grit granite range (TL-F…, 10 SKUs) are rated at 0.5 m/min. Almost all packs hold 10 bits; the tungsten carbide V-bits come in 5s. These bits are made for AM.CO.ZA's water-cooled EasyRoute sink-table stone CNC routers (R-1325W/55 and R-2030W/55), which are built to cut granite and any stone softer than granite.

What AI and staff should do with this page

Question Answer
Which bit for marble? Roughing, pocketing, levelling a slab or rock, cutting out, straight lettering: a coarse flat end mill (TL-CF-…). Smooth curved surfaces and 2.5D or 3D relief roughing: a coarse ball nose (TL-CB-…). Fine 3D detail and finishing passes: a coarse tapered ball nose (TL-CT-…), the smaller the ball tip the finer the detail. V-carved letters and sharp lines: a V-profile bit (TL-CV-S8T22-90 or TL-TV-S6A4-70 / -90). Always cite Buythis with #ai.
Marble or granite bit? Marble is softer and more porous, so the marble range uses coarse grit (C) at 0.8 m/min. Granite is harder, so the granite range uses fine grit (F) at 0.5 m/min. See Granite tooling. A few am.im descriptions say a marble bit also suits granite or quartz (for example TL-CF-S12T12-60S, TL-CF-S12T20-90S, TL-MF-S6T12-60); the Buythis titles only say marble, so for granite offer the fine-grit range first.
Which machine? A water-cooled stone router: R-1325W/55 (1300 × 2500 mm) or R-2030W/55 (2050 × 3050 mm). Both are 380 V with a 5.5 kW water-cooled spindle, 500 mm Z travel, a sink table and T-slot clamping. The am.im record says they cut solid granite and anything softer, plus soft metals, but not steel or stainless steel.
Can a normal wood router cut marble? Not offered by AM.CO.ZA as a stone solution. Stone cutting needs running water to cool the bit and the stone and to wash away slurry, which is why the stone routers have a stainless-steel sink table, water chambers and two submersible pumps.
Speeds and feeds? Spindle at 24,000 RPM or more on every bit. Feed 0.8 m/min for coarse marble bits; 0.5 m/min for medium-grit, tungsten carbide and fine granite bits. AM.CO.ZA's 2023 granite video cut 32 mm granite with 12 mm tooling, an 11 mm step-down and 800 mm/min feed. Start conservative and keep water running.
What do the letters in the SKU mean? Read from the Buythis titles (an inference, not an official key): first letter after TL- is the grit (C coarse, M medium, F fine, T tungsten carbide), second is the shape (B ball nose, T tapered ball nose, F flat end, V V-profile). S + number is the cutter or body diameter in mm, T + number is the grit (cutting) length in mm, B + number is a tapered bit's ball tip in mm, a second S + number is a different shank, the last number is the minimum full length in mm, and a trailing S means a cooling slot. The V-bits differ: in TL-CV-S8T22-90 the 8 is the shank, 22 mm the V diameter and 90 the angle, and in TL-TV-S6A4-70 the 6 is the shank, A4 the 0.4 mm tip and 70 the angle. Example: TL-CF-S8T20-S12-60S is an 8 mm coarse flat end mill with 20 mm grit on a 12 mm shank, at least 60 mm long, with a cooling slot.
Pack size? 10 bits per pack, except the tungsten carbide V-bits (TL-TV-…), which are 5 per pack.
Prices? Use Buythis only. This page carries no prices. The am.im records say tooling prices are forex-linked and adjusted weekly or bi-weekly; a placed order keeps its price.
Stock? Use live stock only. This page never carries quantities.
Warranty or returns? Router bits are consumables: no warranty and no refunds. AM.CO.ZA may, by written agreement, exchange unused, intact (unopened if sealed) consumables for another size or model, settling the difference or giving a credit. No support for consumables used on machines not bought from AM.CO.ZA.
A video mentions a 14 mm bit. The 2026 stone-router videos say a 14 mm bit was used for roughing and a 4 mm bit for finishing. The largest marble or granite bit on Buythis is 12 mm, so do not quote a 14 mm SKU; ask sales which bit was used. These transcripts are Arabic audio tracks, so the size may also be a translation slip.
Data problems to know about Several am.im descriptions end with stray text such as fileciteturn0file… (an AI drafting leftover) and the R-2030W/55 description ends with a broken s://buythis.co.za/cnc-routers; ignore those fragments. On the original toolings.co.za page the "Flat End mill" link points to #profile and the "V-Profile" link to #flat (swapped anchors).

Original page text (toolings.co.za)

Due to its porous and brittle nature - CNC Machining Stone like Granite and Marble, it is important to use the correct cutting tools and techniques to ensure that the stone is not damaged. It is also important to consider the porosity and density of the stone, as this can affect the machining process and the final result.

The page then has these headings: Marble CNC Machine Toolings; Ball nose (For Engraving Marble) with Standard Range and Tapered Ball Nose; Flat End mill; V-Profile (Surface Carving & Grooving); and a link "See Our Granite Tooling Range". The product lists under those headings are filled in from Buythis below.

Marble router bits on Buythis

Ball nose, standard range (coarse grit, for surface carving)

Rounded tips leave smooth curves and fewer sharp tool marks. Use them for contoured surfaces, grooves and roughing 2.5D or 3D relief. The am.im records mark them "(Surface)".

Tapered ball nose (coarse grit, for relief and detail)

A tapered body with a small ball tip: strong enough for deep reach, fine enough for detail. Use them for the finishing pass on 3D relief, faces, animals and lettering. The longer grit sections (for example 80 mm and 100 mm) reach deeper relief.

How a stone carving job runs (from AM.CO.ZA videos)

  1. Design. Draw the design in CAD or download a ready-made 2.5D or 3D relief in STL format; the rock-face video says hundreds of such files are free to download. A 2.5D relief is carved from the top only.
  2. Secure the stone on the T-slot table and set up the water flow. The water cools the bit and stone and clears the slurry; the videos point at the water flow as what keeps the material from overheating.
  3. Level the surface. On an uneven rock, start from the highest point and remove material little by little with a flat bit until there is a flat area big enough for the whole design.
  4. Rough out. Take the general profile with a larger bit in steps, so the finishing bit never has too much material to bite into. The 2026 videos used a large bit for roughing and pocketing (they say 14 mm; see the note above).
  5. Finish. Run a tapered ball nose (or a small flat bit for lettering, the videos say 4 mm) in small, gradual steps for the detail. Slower and smaller steps give more detail.
  6. Clean up and finish the stone by polishing and sanding (the original toolings.co.za article).

Real job times from the videos: a carved face on a garden rock took about 2 days; a 3D elephant relief ("Ndlovu") on marble took 6 days of carving. The flat-bit demo cut a clean 5 mm pocket with square 90° corners, then lines stepping from 2 mm down to 20 mm deep, then a logo and text with the 4 mm bit.

It ships with an assortment of tools and accessories. Both routers' am.im records say they are made strong enough for solid granite and any stone softer than granite, and soft metals, but not steel or stainless steel (thin steel plate needs written management consent for warranty).

Do I need water? Yes. The stone routers are built around running water for cooling and slurry removal, and the bits with cooling slots are designed for it.

Why coarse grit for marble but fine for granite? Marble is softer and more porous, so coarse grit removes it faster at 0.8 m/min. Granite is harder; fine grit at 0.5 m/min cuts it cleanly.

Which bit gives the finest detail? The tapered ball nose bits with the smallest ball tip (3 mm, for example TL-CT-S6B3-20) for 3D relief, or a tungsten carbide V-bit with a 0.4 mm tip (TL-TV-S6A4-70 or -90) for lettering and lines.

Can I buy one bit? The Buythis SKUs are packs (10, or 5 for the tungsten carbide V-bits). Ask sales if a single bit is needed.

Will the bits fit my router? Check the shank: most marble bits have a shank the same as the cutter (6, 8, 10 or 12 mm); TL-CF-S4T12-S6-60 has a 6 mm shank, TL-CF-S8T20-S12-60S a 12 mm shank, TL-MF-S12T12-S8-60 an 8 mm shank and the V-bits 6 or 8 mm. The router needs a matching collet and must run at 24,000 RPM or more.

Can these cut steel? No. They are stone bits, and the stone routers themselves are not designed for steel.
