Most carbide inserts seems to have a depth of cuts at which you will get a good finish, and for most inserts it's always more than 0.5mm. That means if I want to take 0.1mm off I'm out of luck and will get crappy finish. Are there inserts that allows me to take shaving passes and still get good finish?
I'm machining annealed 4140. The surface finish gets better if it's hardened, but in the annealed state it seems the only way to get a good finish is to basically take large passes.
