Seco 00015003 Milling Insert XOMX180608TR-M14 F30M

Product Description

The SECO 00015003 is a solid carbide milling insert carrying the ANSI/ISO designation XOMX180608TR-M14 and manufacturer grade F30M. Designed for use in shoulder and face milling operations, this parallelogram-shaped, right-hand insert features a PVD-applied TiAlN and TiN dual coating over a micrograin carbide substrate. It delivers a positive rake angle of 15.5 degrees and a T-Land cutting edge style, giving machinists controlled chip formation and extended edge life across a broad range of workpiece materials. Two cutting edges per insert and a screw-holding method keep setup simple and repeatable in production environments.

This insert is suited for universal material applications including steel, stainless steel, cast iron, and hard materials, covering ISO material codes P, M, K, and H. It fits within the SECO XOMX-18 series and is compatible with R217.69-18 and R220.69-18 cutter bodies. Typical use cases include roughing and semi-finishing passes on CNC machining centers in job shop and production floor environments. The M14 chip breaker geometry supports consistent chip evacuation across these varied material types.

Key Features

• PVD-coated TiAlN and TiN dual-layer finish on micrograin solid carbide substrate for wear resistance

• M14 chip breaker geometry rated for steel, stainless steel, cast iron, and hard materials
• Two usable cutting edges per insert for improved cost-per-edge value
• Screw-holding method with right-hand orientation for secure, repeatable seating
• Compatible with R217.69-18 and R220.69-18 SECO cutter bodies

Compatibility

Designed for use with SECO cutter series R217.69-18 and R220.69-18. ANSI and ISO code for this insert is XOMX180608TR-M14. Fits tools within the XOMX-18 series accepting an inscribed circle in the 0.4000 to 0.5000 inch range and thickness in the 0.2500 to 0.3500 inch range.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician. Before changing inserts, confirm the spindle is fully stopped, the machine is in an e-stop or lockout-tagout state, and the cutter body is secured. Use the appropriate Torx or hex key to seat the clamping screw to the cutter body manufacturer's specified torque — refer to the cutter body documentation, as no torque value is specified for this insert. Inspect the insert pocket and locating surfaces for chips or debris before seating the new insert.
