Yes, as long as they fit snug in the mounting recess so it does not rattle around. You could also use cutters with a chip breaker, which would make them effectively positive rake, and would require less power, but would also be more fragile. Look carefully, what you have now may be rubbing on the clearance angle. Some cutters are designed for milling, others for external lathe use. That is all about relief angles, which are different for internal milling and external lathe cuts. A mill facing cut is effectively an internal operation. Working in a hole requires more clearance angle.Could I, or would I want to find inserts with back rake so it takes a bit less pressure to cut?
