Seco 00027185 Milling Insert XOEX120431FR-E06 F40M Carbide

Product Description

The SECO 00027185 is a solid carbide milling insert in the XOEX-12 series, identified by ANSI and ISO code XOEX120431FR-E06 and manufactured in grade F40M. This parallelogram-shaped, single-sided insert features a right-hand cutting orientation with a positive rake angle of 24.8 degrees and a sharp cutting edge style. It carries a PVD-applied TiAlN and TiN dual coating over a fine-grain carbide substrate, providing wear resistance and thermal stability in demanding milling applications. The insert measures 0.4724 inches in length, 0.3228 inches in inscribed circle diameter, and 0.1980 inches in thickness, with a corner radius of 0.1220 inches and two cutting edges per insert.

This insert is designed for face milling, shoulder milling, and general milling operations on steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals, superalloys, and titanium. Its E06 chip breaker geometry suits a broad range of roughing and semi-finishing cuts. The maximum depth of cut is 0.4724 inches and the effective cutting edge length is 0.4724 inches. It is compatible with SECO cutter series R217.69-12 and R220.69-12. This insert is appropriate for production environments in aerospace, general machining, and job-shop settings where multi-material capability is required.
