I guess he found some ultra rare CNMG-411-FS inserts. I wonder if
they are the unobtanium grade.
The exact type under green plastic package is:
"CNMG120408-FS NX2525
CNMG432FS"

On top of package there are listed cutting speeds
for stainless (70-150 m/min) and steel (210-300 m/min).
So these are obviously meant for steel also.
Your depth of cut is way too small for such a large nose radius. You should
leave a minimum of .054mm (2/3)DOC for that radius. Better yet would be to
use a CNMG 431 or 430 insert for finishing.

What is "a minimum of .054mm (2/3)DOC" ???
Where does that come from?

The specs of FS breaker state minimum DoC of 0.2mm..
That is in catalog of Mitsubishi Carbide for this insert,
and in webpages documents of MC as well.. Like:
http://www.mitsubishicarbide.com/EU/...dimple_bar.pdf
That small DoC was why I selected the -FS in the first place..

My normal (working fine) CNMG inserts have a nose radius
of 0.8mm as well.. They "work" with 0.1mm DoC except the
surface finish is not so good - but no chatter..
