"Up to .500" has absolutely no problem with it, I've also made a few 1" wide cuts (diameter of cutters) with it, cutting both P20 tool steel and CRS, and a .050" depth of cut. I run the tool at 1000 RPM for most cuts and 1200-1400 for the "finish" cuts. I recommend having a VERY hard attitude when using this tool because you should…

After cutting over an inch of material the insert looks like new (see second picture marked with purple pen) * The blank I was…
