cutting bits

[aokweld101]

Iv'e been looking for a cheaper way of buying bits but I'm not sure on mm size if I used the er11 spindle what size would I be looking for on the shank size in mm. thanks

Those are 1/8 x 7/8. I am not sure if that is oal or loc.

Just use 25.4 mm/in to convert back and forth between mm and inches. (Divide to convert mm -> inches, multiply to convert inches -> mm.)

(3.175 mm)/(25.4 mm/in) = 0.125 in, (22 mm)/(25.4 mm/in)= 0.866 in.

Good to know, thanks.
