RobSm Posted December 2, 2018 Report Share Posted December 2, 2018 HI. I am considering using a 1" (25.4mm) roundover bit - without the bearing, see photo.For feeds & speeds how should I think of it? V-bit, End mill, form bit?In ferreting out info from various sites the speeds & feeds are frightening to me .Any advice appreciated.Thanks.

thekt88killedjfk Posted October 19, 2021 Report Share Posted October 19, 2021 (edited) For rpm, the manufacture should have a max rpm listed. Its not an endmill, you can't mill with the end of it. It IS a lot like a v-bit, just curved. Feeds and speeds will rely heavily on what your max RPM is. You can always test it out and see what is chatter free and gives you a good finish. Most of the time I'm using my own feeds and speeds rather than suggestions anyways. edit: jeez louise I just replied to a 3 yo post Edited October 19, 2021 by thekt88killedjfk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
