    This document provides recommended cutting speeds and feeds for various machining processes like turning, drilling, reaming, and end milling using high speed steel and carbide tooling. It lists recommended speed and feed rate ranges for different materials like aluminum, brass, bronze, cast iron, steel, stainless steel, titanium, and others. Speeds may be multiplied by a factor of 2 to 4 when using carbide tooling instead of high speed steel.

    Feeds* for Drilling

    *High Speed Steel and carbide tooling use same values.


    Drill Diameter (in) Drill Feed (in/rev)
    Under 1/8 0.001 - 0.003
    1/8 to 1/4 0.002 - 0.005
    1/4 to 1/2 0.004 - 0.007
    1/2 to 1 0.007 - 0.017
    Over 1 0.015 - 0.030

    Feeds* for Rough** Turning

    *High Speed Steel and carbide tooling use same values.


    **Feeds for finishing depend on required surface finish. Finer feeds generally give smoother surfaces.

    Material Feedrate (in/rev)


    Aluminum 0.007 - 0.050
    Cast Iron 0.011 - 0.025
    Copper Alloys 0.005 - 0.022
    Nickel Alloys 0.005 - 0.018
    Stainless Steel*** 0.005 - 0.022
    Steel 0.010 - 0.090
    Titanium 0.007 - 0.018
    ***The surface of some stainless steels will workharden when cut. A positive feedrate large enough
    to enable the tool to cut under the effected area is required. Do not allow the tool to apply pressure to
    workpiece w/o cutting.
