Recommended Tolerance

• Material Stellite/Carbide

• Insert Hardness ± 1 Rockwell

• Width Kerf-0.010″ +0.000″ / -0.003″

• Thickness 1/8″ nominal before brazing

• Side Clearance Equal ± 0.002″

Verification

Hardness. Hardness testing requires a bench type instrument with a Rockwell “A” indenter and performed by qualified personnel. If equipment is not available, sample tips may be sent to a qualified testing facility, for evaluation.
Width. Measure with a dial caliper.
Thickness. Use a dial caliper
Side Clearance. Use a side clearance gauge to check each insert, on each side, along its entire length.
Tangential Clearance Angle. Use a 0-1″ micrometer with pointed anvils. – see angle equivalent table in appendix.
