    Ceramic with a positive rake small rad. and from what I remember about 15 sf, .005-.007 doc, feed .003 -.005 makes long spiral chips great finish. Don't get in no hurry. Its expensive stuff for a reason. I cut it for about 2 months and when you get it right tools last a long time so adjust and good luck.

    Try greenleaf.
    I used their 3/8" button insert to rough jet engine housings.
    They have a Singapore office.
    Best luck.
