It took considerable googling time, an hour or more, useing the tool numbers acid inked on them to just to get the correct (I hope) numbers for the inserts. It's a nicely made pair of tools, although I've removed about 1/16" of metal on the back side of the internal tool in order to have retrace clearance when the starter hole is a bit below 7/16" in diameter. When I purchased them, I was disappointed to discover the paper that came with them, did not contain the chip numbers.
Whats the diff when they add a PMA to the part number and its black, not TiN coated? They seem to be cheaper. Around $45/box of 10. The 8mm size is about 2x the $ of the 11mm and 16mm versions are going for. These TiN coated ones I've been breaking leave a lot of "hair" on the A2 steel that needs 2 or 3 trips over it with a suitable nut to iron the hair down smooth, even with 5 spring passes. I've found perhaps 10 vendors showing 08ERA60 and 5 or 6 showing 08IRA60, but only one with HHIP brand TiN coated versions, but that listing is asking $32 for one TiN version, so I've sent a message asking how many for that price. And while the add says 08ERA60, the pix is its mirror, the 08IRA60. ebays busted search throws in 10 listings for the 11mm and 16mm versions just to make it look like they have a boatload of people selling them. > > > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >-------- _______________________________________________ > Emc-users mailing list > Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
