Seco 00029124 Tapered End Mill 3 Flute Solid Carbide

Product Description

The SECO 00029124 is a solid carbide tapered end mill designed for precision machining operations requiring a controlled taper profile. Built to Series HK standards, it features a 15-degree taper angle per side and a 0.1575-inch small end diameter, with a 0.5906-inch length of cut. The three-flute, right-hand spiral configuration promotes efficient chip evacuation while maintaining rigidity in the cut. The square end geometry delivers clean, flat-bottomed results. With a 12 mm shank diameter and an overall length of 65 mm, this tool fits standard end mill holders used in CNC machining centers and manual milling setups alike.

This tapered end mill is suited for milling applications across a range of workpiece materials, including cast iron, stainless steel, non-ferrous metals, steel, and superalloys, corresponding to material codes K, M, N, P, and S. The uncoated solid carbide construction makes it appropriate for short-run work, non-ferrous materials, or applications where re-sharpening is planned. It is commonly used in die and mold work, aerospace component machining, and general precision part production where tapered wall geometry is required.

Key Features

• 15-degree taper angle per side for consistent tapered wall geometry
• 0.1575-inch small end diameter with a tolerance of +0.1/0 mm for precise fit
• 3-flute right-hand spiral design for efficient chip removal
• Solid carbide construction provides rigidity and wear resistance
• Square end geometry for flat-bottomed cuts
• Uncoated finish suitable for non-ferrous and re-sharpenable applications
• 30-degree helix angle supports smooth cutting action

Compatibility

Compatible with workpiece material codes K, M, N, P, and S as specified by the manufacturer. Designed as an OEM-style replacement and suitable for use in standard end mill holders accepting a 12 mm shank with h5 tolerance.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC setup technician. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before installing or removing the tool. Secure the shank in a collet or end mill holder rated for the 12 mm diameter, and verify runout does not exceed the maximum TIR of 0.0008 inches before starting the cut. Consult the machine tool manufacturer guidelines and applicable shop safety standards for proper tool-holding torque and clamping procedures.
