Manual lathe turning 9mm Dia full hardened M2 HSS down to 4mm Dia 3mm long.
No coolant, using cheap WMNG inserts, which work ok. Should i be worried about stressing or weakening the material? Finished Pins are under a bit of stress so i dont want to weaken it with the turning. They will be finished ground to size.
If turning is fine, whats a recommended insert ? May put the job in the cnc.
