  • This table refers to 2/3xD drill ratio usage. For 4xD ratio decrease cutting data by 15%
  • Chipformer should be selected based on our geometry range recommendations
  • When using external coolant supply only, reduce cutting speed by 10%
  • Use internal coolant supply when machining austenitic stainless steel
