Retention and exposure must stay balanced.
If diamonds pull out too early, tool life drops. If exposure is too low, cutting becomes inefficient.

Selection guide
Material selection guidance
Metal bond diamond tools should be specified around workpiece abrasiveness, thermal load, and expected diamond exposure.
Coatings are useful when interface behavior is part of the failure mode.
