I need your help to translate the last numbers to this indexable tool
holder and insert.


Holder SSRCR1616H09
Insert SCMT09T308


It appears from the pic that there are 3 diamond inserts and two square
ones. *Also, the diamond at the far right is a different size than the
other two. *I can't tell much about the far left holder, although I'm
guessing it has a triangular insert with no center hole. *The next one
to it looks like it has a sawed-off brazed bit, maybe. *So, it appears
to have 5 different inserts in the set.

Jon,
Thanks.
I think the last number are different from the ANSI chart because they
might be metric. This is just a guess. I was hoping to know what
size insert it was as well
as the thickness and radius.

C=7 degree relief
M=5 thou tolerance on thickness; 2 thou tolerance on inscribed circle
