Pedro,
Yep held good. This was parted off with a Slitting Saw. On this project, these parts were 303SS, so it was pretty rigid.
I do this alot with small parts, trying to do with 1 operation like this. I normally try to leave .005 or .010 for the part to stay put. At the machine during setup, I normally have the operator/setup person play with the cutter comp to adjust for more or less material, which ever is the easiest for the thinnest amount possible that keeps the part on.
It's a nice strategy to make many little parts like this so you don't have to try to rip the stock off the back.
