    5/0 is slowest rate (greatest choking effect). 5 is highest (least choking effect). When ordering, please specify complete symbol and part number.


    So would it be right to say the ways get the high number and the ball screws get the slowest rate???

    Sometimes it simply has to do with the line length. A really long line has a lot of back pressure.
    Here is a link to the Fadal manuals http://www.compumachine.com/Support/DL-Fadal.htm

    Otherwise (if you are lucky) Neal will let you know.
