*NOTE: If the Cutting Length exceeds 1-1/2 times
the Diameter Size of the tool,
conventional milling is recommended.
| WARNING: |
Too low of an RPM coupled with too
much Feed
might cause the Tool to shatter. |
| FOR BEST RESULTS: |
Direct multiple coolant nozzles at the End Mill to assure constant
cooling of the tool and to flush chips |
