Seco 00015027 Milling Insert XOMX180608TR-D16 F30M Carbide

Product Description

The SECO 00015027 is a solid carbide milling insert with ANSI and ISO designation XOMX180608TR-D16, manufactured to the F30M grade in the XOMX-18 series. This single-sided, right-hand parallelogram insert features a PVD-applied TiAlN and TiN dual coating over a micrograin carbide substrate. It carries a positive rake angle of 11 degrees with a T-Land cutting edge style, a 15-degree relief angle, and two cutting edges per insert. The D16 chip breaker geometry is designed to control chip flow during high-demand milling operations. Licensed machinists and CNC tool setup technicians typically specify this insert for demanding material removal applications.

This insert is rated for primary use in cast iron and hard materials, with secondary suitability for steel and stainless steel — covering ISO material groups P, M, K, and H. It is suited for face milling, shoulder milling, and high-feed milling operations in both production shop and job-shop environments. The insert is held by screw clamping and is compatible with the R217.69-18 and R220.69-18 cutter series. Applications include roughing and semi-finishing passes where edge toughness and coating durability are required.

Key Features

• Solid micrograin carbide substrate with PVD TiAlN and TiN dual coating for extended tool life in hard and abrasive materials
• XOMX180608TR-D16 designation — conforms to both ANSI and ISO standards
• D16 chip breaker geometry optimized for cast iron, hard material, steel, and stainless steel
• Positive rake angle (11 degrees) with T-Land edge style reduces cutting forces and protects edge integrity
• Two usable cutting edges per insert; single-sided construction
• Right-hand orientation; screw-held clamping for secure, repeatable seating in compatible toolholders

Compatibility

Compatible with the R217.69-18 and R220.69-18 cutter series. Designed as an OEM-specification replacement insert within the SECO XOMX-18 series milling system.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or CNC tooling technicians. Always power down and lock out the machine spindle before seating or replacing inserts. Use the correct torque driver for the clamping screw — do not over-tighten, as this can crack the carbide body. Inspect the insert pocket and clamping screw for wear or debris before seating a new insert to ensure proper contact and repeatability.
