Gene, This link shows they are available. They ARE a bit pricey though. https://www.kennametal.com/us/en/products/fam.kencut-ht-eade-radiused-4-flutes-necked-plain-shank-metric.100003329.html?pdpQuery=&sort=relevance&pageSize=16&category=
I had a couple of these in my desk at MPM. I think I have them in a box somewhere in my home. If I find them I will let you know. They are feather light, they seem hollow. I never had the inclination to use them. In my mind there are very few machines stiff enough to use them. I have never had a machine stiff enough with sufficient spindle speed to reach the cutting edge speed needed for these to function within the needed parameters. thanks Stuart Stevenson 4638 Farmstead Ct Bel Aire, KS 67220 316 258 0953 stus...@gmail.com On Sat, Mar 16, 2024 at 4:30 AM gene heskett <ghesk...@shentel.net> wrote: > On 3/15/24 14:05, Nicklas SB Karlsson wrote: > >> ... > >> Is the coating on the bit electrically conductive?
