Silicon carbide is classified as a “semi-conductor”. It is used to make some heavy duty rectifier diodes and maybe other stuff
Oxide-coated tools likely would conduct because the oxide wears off really fast, OK, I just tried a black oxide tool and I see ZERO conductivity. But then I test the cutting sharp edge and it conducts where the black stuff has been worn off. > On Mar 16, 2024, at 2:23 AM, gene heskett <ghesk...@shentel.net> wrote: > > On 3/15/24 14:05, Nicklas SB Karlsson wrote: >>> ... >>> Is the coating on the bit electrically conductive?
