TRI TOOL INC. Basic Feed Recommendation Use very light feed for initial beveling or until a continuous cut is established. This is very important for longer tool bit life when cutting through flame cut or out of square pipe ends. Use adequate feed, .003" (.08 mm) to .006" (.15 mm) per revolution thereafter, to establish a continuous chip cut.
