Please see the link to this tool below. Click on the speed, feed rate tab, and download the pdf file. You will see that the RC-2257 has a column for plastic. They recommend a starting RPM of 12,000 and feed rate of about 120” per minute with a chip load of 0.005” per tooth. I would recommend a starting cutting depth of 0.062”. you will need to adjust your feed and speed rate accordingly based on the quality of cut you desire in 10% increments.
