    Parting-off diameter

    The maximum parting-off dia on a solid bar is 13 mm with the Q16 insert and 20 mm with the Q25 insert. It is possible to cut larger diameters of tube as the tool does not travel to the centre of the component. Please check with the diagram below for the most suitable insert for your application.

    Example: D = 28 mm d = 20 mm
    Choose Q25-insert
