But, if you're like me and want to order extra inserts, there's something they don't tell you about in the item description. The TPG-free 1" cutter does not use the TPG-free TPG-free TPG-free TPG-free TPG-free TPG- They talk about 322 inserts. TPG is required. There are 222 smaller inserts in total. Apart from this flaw, they appear to be well-made and run smoothly in my miniature mill. I'm excited to put them to use. br>br>When I realized there was a problem (I had ordered TPG-1) I wanted to order some inserts for the 1" cutter, so I ordered 322 of them. But I couldn't decide which size to order. I became even more perplexed when I attempted to measure the inserts. These are described as having a value of zero. The diameter is 375". The triangular cutter's sides, on the other hand, are LARGER, approaching 0. 577". As a result, I began searching the internet for information on how these cutters are named and described. Eventually, I came across the chart I've included here, which explains why the "inscribed circle" dimension of 0 is so important. The largest circle you could fit in the triangle's center without it hanging over the sides would be 375. As a result, the inserts required for the larger of these cutters, TPG-M, are TPG-M-M-M-M-M-M-M 322, on the other hand, complies with the specification. TPG-sized TPG-sized TPG-sized TPG-sized TPG- The dimension of the inscribed circle/diameter is 222, and the dimension of the inscribed circle/diameter is 0. 250.
Well. This end mill left a lasting impression on me. I've seen Sandvik Corromants for four times the price, and they don't cut any better. Now, I'd read that the carbide inserts that come with this end mill are a waste of money. That is, in fact, correct. Mine had already been damaged, so I had to rotate them right away. After that, I was able to achieve a very smooth cut. At these prices, the cutter would have been a steal even if it didn't come with the inserts. This is a fantastic purchase.
My only regret is that I did not purchase one with a larger diameter. I needed to do some facing and despised the fly cutters I had. I experimented with a few different cuts and feed rates, and found that the higher RPMs result in a much cleaner surface, and the feed rate was actually quite fast, even with a 40 thou cut. Much more quickly than a flycutter or. End mill with a 75" diameter It's an added bonus that it uses the same carbide inserts as some of my lathe tools.
Wow, this thing takes up a lot of space on my LMS 3990 mill. It also has a nice, clean finish.
