Seco 00048839 Carbide Cutoff Insert CP600 Tialn Tin

Product Description

The SECO 00048839 is a solid carbide cutoff insert designed for parting and grooving operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. Part of the Series 150.10 platform, it features a CP600 manufacturer grade with a PVD-applied TiAlN and TiN multilayer coating for extended tool life across a range of workpiece materials. The insert has a 0.161 inch cutting width, a 0.009 inch corner radius, and a neutral lead angle with zero relief angle. It is held in place by a clamp-style toolholder and is intended for single-end use. Machinists and toolroom technicians working in production or job-shop environments rely on this geometry for clean, efficient cutoff work.

This insert is suited for cut-off applications on universal workpiece materials, covering a broad range of metals typically encountered in turning operations. The chipbreaker designation 12 provides chip control geometry matched to the 0.161 inch width for consistent chip evacuation during parting. It is appropriate for use in both light-production and high-cycle turning environments where consistent groove width and surface finish are required. The neutral hand orientation allows straightforward mounting without lateral offset adjustments.

Key Features

• CP600 solid carbide grade with PVD TiAlN and TiN coating for wear resistance and heat management
• 0.161 inch cutting width with 0.009 inch corner radius for precise parting geometry
• Neutral lead angle and neutral hand — no lateral offset required at installation
• Chipbreaker designation 12 for controlled chip formation during cutoff
• Clamp-style insert holding method for secure, repeatable seating in compatible toolholders
• Single-end insert design rated for universal OD workpiece material code

Compatibility

Designed for use with Series 150.10 clamp-style cutoff and grooving toolholders that accept a size code 4 insert. Specific toolholder compatibility should be verified against Series 150.10 holder documentation before installation.

Installation Notes

This insert is installed and replaced by a machinist or toolroom technician. Always power down and lock out the machine before indexing or replacing the insert. Use the correct clamping torque specified by the toolholder manufacturer — do not overtighten the clamp screw, as this can crack the insert body. Confirm the insert is fully seated in the pocket before resuming cutting operations.
