Picked up this boring bar for a job and found the standard WNMG 432 series inserts do not fit. They are 1/2" inscribed circle and 3/16" tall, the inserts that do go with this bar are 5/16" thick... (WNGX)
After a search through Kennametals site, it seems that all the compatible inserts available to fit are ceramics that are generally suitable for cast iron.
Is there a way to convert this to accept standard wnmg inserts? Possibly a thicker shim? Maybe Stack a couple shims?
