Carbide endmills for steel

I hear the carbide endmills are in. I will be in this weekend and set them up and will begin modifying the tool library with ‘conservative’ feeds and speeds for them. Hopefully we have enough good tool holders left to accommodate them. I’ll post more information when that is done

What size are the tool holders?

Yes they are in. 2 flutes.I put them in the teachers cabinet. There was 1 back-ordered, It was a longer one best I can recall 1.75” length.

They are cat40. Don’t know the size of the retention knob offhand

There are more on the way.
usps !@#%& failed delivery…:exploding_head:

Provided they make it into the building I’ll grab them.

I put the 120* spotting drills in the Teachers cabinet. We also got 4 pair of safety glasses, not sure why 4.
