Seco 00050064 Turning Insert 883 Carbide 55 Diamond 0.5 in Ic

Product Description

The SECO 00050064 is a solid carbide turning insert designed for precision material removal in demanding machining applications. This uncoated insert carries the ANSI designation DNGP430.5F-M1 and ISO designation DNGP150402, and falls within the DNGP-M1 series. The 55-degree diamond (rhombic) shape delivers a sharp cutting edge geometry suited for finishing and light machining passes. With a 0.5-inch inscribed circle, a 0.0079-inch corner radius, and a negative rake and clearance configuration, this insert is built to handle high wear conditions in superalloy and titanium cutting environments. It provides four usable cutting edges per insert, maximizing tool life per unit.

This insert is primarily intended for machining superalloys and titanium, with secondary suitability for stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous materials, and hardened workpieces. Typical applications include back turning, boring, facing, and general turning operations in both CNC turning centers and manual lathes. The M1 chip breaker geometry is optimized for finishing and light machining, producing controlled chip flow at lower depths of cut. It is specified under material grades S10, S20, and S30, targeting operations that demand high wear resistance through a range of toughness levels. Machinists and tooling specialists in aerospace, energy, and precision manufacturing environments will find this insert suited to tight-tolerance finishing passes on difficult-to-machine alloys.

Compatibility

Designed for use in toolholders accepting DNGP-style inserts with a 0.2028-inch hole diameter, clamp, pin, or lever lock holding methods, and conforming to ANSI size code 430.5 and ISO size code 150402. Confirm toolholder compatibility with the ANSI and ISO designations before ordering.

Installation Notes

Qualified machinists or tooling technicians should seat and index this insert following the toolholder manufacturer's torque and clamping specifications for the applicable holding method (clamp, pin, or lever lock). Power down and lock out the machine before changing inserts. Inspect the insert pocket and seating surface for chips or debris before seating a new insert, as contamination can affect edge runout and surface finish. Minimum order quantity for this insert is 10 pieces.
