Main applications are wherever small dimensions, high quality, and accuracy are required, with the best results achieved by considering various factors, such as the recommendation for conventional milling in two steps in order to avoid secondary burrs. Standard sizes from 0.36mm to 5.70mm (0.015" to 0.220") for hole depths up to five times diameter are available.
