Please use the table above as a reference starting point. Note 5) For hardened steel over 55 HRC, use VF2XLB. Note 6) For cutting conditions for austenitic stainless steel and titanium alloy, use the high hardness steel (45-55 HRC) table but reduce the spindle speed by 40% and the feed rate by 55%. I111
