(Note) · Set the finishing allowance on a diameter at approx. .004 inch when using a full form insert.
· Please note the cutting depth and the number of passes when a nose radius of a partial or semi-full form insert or of an internal threading insert is
small to prevent damage to the insert nose.
· Please set the cutting depth sufficiently deep enough on materials such as hardened steel or austenitic stainless steel to help prevent premature
wear and chipping caused by the outer layer of the material.
