Seco 00061858 Right Hand Grooving Toolholder 7in Mdt

Product Description

The SECO 00061858 is a right-hand indexable grooving toolholder designed for non-face grooving operations in the Multi-Directional Turning (MDT) series. Built from steel, it accepts LC..1303.. inserts secured by a clamp-style insert holding method. The toolholder features through-coolant capability for improved chip evacuation and thermal management at the cutting zone. Overall length is 7 inches, with a shank width of 0.605 inches and a shank height of 0.586 inches. Maximum depth of cut is 0.118 inches. This toolholder is suited for machinists and CNC lathe operators working with demanding workpiece materials, including stainless steel.

This toolholder is intended for use in internal and external grooving applications on CNC lathes and turning centers. The A..-CGHR style designation places it in a class of toolholders optimized for right-hand cutting direction. The minimum bore diameter supported is 0.63 inches, making it appropriate for bore and ID grooving work. Stainless steel is listed as the primary workpiece material, aligning this toolholder with applications in industries such as aerospace, medical, and general precision machining where M-group materials are commonly encountered.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC setup technician. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the machine is in an e-stop or locked-out state before mounting or changing toolholders. Verify insert seating and clamp torque according to the insert manufacturer's specifications before commencing a cut. Confirm coolant line connection integrity before enabling through-coolant flow to avoid coolant misdirection during operation.
