Let's talk face mill insert code

By the way, where did you find this information? Have a link? I would like to read up on it a little.

When I started out I was so confused on insert designations. Most tool supply catalogs will have a section that deciphers it all. I studied my Enco & MSC catalogs until I got a better understanding.

Once you get a bit familiar with it all you'll see a pattern & start to understand it easily.

Carbide Depot has a good resource online.
