I have to slit 82 slots each of 3 rows in SS schedule 40 pipe (actual wall thickness .100) Machine is K&T #2 (has speed selector on right side) Called saw maker and he recommended .003 to .005 FPT Speed 70 SFM. Cutter is 2-3/4 OD 72 tooth. He also said I could cut the full dept on 1/8". Didn't measure exact tooth dept but it's about 1/8" (I will get exact depth) I plan to start wit 1 saw then extend it to 8, maybe more later.
Does FPT = feet per tooth? So that .003 is .036"/tooth?
I've never cut with very thin blades, smallest ever was 1/16" wide in 4140 but only 3 pieces. Do the feeds and depth of cut seem correct?
