Built for controlled composite trimming, laminate routing, and precision edge-finishing work, the Dotco 12L1000-36RT Inline Router pairs a 0.3 HP pneumatic motor with a 30,000 RPM free speed for clean material removal in production environments. Its inline body style supports steady hand positioning during detailed routing tasks, while the composite housing helps reduce tool weight for repetitive use. The Front Exhaust configuration directs spent air forward, helping move exhaust away from the operator’s hand and rear work area.
Part of Dotco’s 12-10 Series, this air router is well suited for shops working with composites, plastics, fiberglass, and other non-metallic materials where speed consistency and tool control matter. The pneumatic design is a practical choice for manufacturing cells, repair operations, and fixture-based routing stations that rely on compressed air tools for repeatable performance.

FAQs:
- Q: What is this Dotco inline router used for?
A: It is used for trimming, routing, and edge-finishing composites, plastics, fiberglass, and similar materials when paired with the correct cutting bit. - Q: What does the 30,000 RPM rating mean?
A: The 30,000 RPM free speed indicates how fast the tool runs without load. This high speed helps create cleaner cuts in routing applications when the bit is properly matched to the material. - Q: Why choose an inline router body?
A: An inline body helps the operator keep the tool aligned with the cut path, which is useful for controlled trimming and routing work. - Q: Does this router require a specific air setup?
A: Use clean, dry compressed air and confirm the required air pressure, inlet size, and hose size from the manufacturer’s catalog before installation.
