The insert is square in shape with a 90-degree included angle, four cutting edges, and a neutral hand orientation. A TiAlN and TiN dual coating applied via PVD process provides wear resistance across a wide range of workpiece materials. Key dimensional values include a 0.5000-inch inscribed circle, 0.1252-inch thickness, and a 0.0394-inch corner radius. The positive rake geometry (25.5-degree rake angle) and T-Land cutting edge style reduce cutting forces during face and shoulder milling operations. The chip breaker designation is ME13. Installation and use are performed by machinists and CNC tooling technicians.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis insert is designed for face milling and shoulder milling applications where consistent performance across multiple material types is required. Primary workpiece materials include Steel (P), Cast Iron (K), and Superalloys and Titanium (S). Secondary workpiece material compatibility extends to Cast Iron (K) and Non-Ferrous Metal (N). The insert is suited for both production and job-shop environments handling ferrous and exotic alloys. The maximum depth of cut is 0.3465 inches, and the cutting edge effective length is 0.5000 inches. The insert seats via wedge clamp retention, consistent with the R220.13-12 cutter series. Material grain classification is fine grain carbide, contributing to edge stability in interrupted and continuous cut scenarios.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide fine grain substrate with TiAlN and TiN PVD dual coating for extended tool life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSquare shape with 90-degree included angle and four usable cutting edges per insert\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePositive rake geometry at 25.5 degrees with T-Land edge style reduces cutting forces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eME13 chip breaker geometry suited for steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, superalloys, and titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaximum depth of cut 0.3465 inches with 0.5000-inch cutting edge effective length\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWedge clamp retention method compatible with R220.13-12 cutter series\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with the R220.13-12 cutter series.

Always power down and de-energize the machine spindle before seating or removing inserts. Use the appropriate torque wrench and wedge clamp hardware specified by the cutter body manufacturer — do not substitute clamp components. Inspect the insert pocket and clamp surfaces for debris or wear before seating a new insert to ensure proper contact and runout control.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: SEKR\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eANSI \/ ISO Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: SEKR1203AFTN-ME13\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: F40M\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Square\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide, Fine Grain\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiAlN and TiN\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating Process\u003c\/strong\u003e: PVD\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Size Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1203\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInscribed Circle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1252 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0394 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Cutting Edges\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Edge Effective Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Depth of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3465 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRelief Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 20 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 25.5 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake\u003c\/strong\u003e: Positive\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Edge Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: T-Land\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChip Breaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: ME13\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 90 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Hand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Neutral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Holding Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Wedge Clamp\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSided\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel, Cast Iron, Superalloys and Titanium\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSecondary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cast Iron, Non-Ferrous Metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutter Series Compatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e: R220.13-12\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandard\u003c\/strong\u003e: ISO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Order Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: SECO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 00004897\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SECO TOOLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51560688812338,"sku":"00004897","price":296.71,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/e169428d69808fe436b13a742bd807dc.jpg?v=1786455762","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/seco-00004897-sekr1203aftn-me13-f40m-carbide-milling-insert","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
