Seco 00098952 Indexable High-feed Face Mill 2 in 4 Flute

Product Description

The SECO 00098952 is an indexable high-feed face mill designed for aggressive metal removal in milling operations. Built on the R220.21 cutter platform, this tool accepts four 218.19-160 inserts held in place by screws and delivers a maximum depth of cut of 0.08 inches at spindle speeds up to 12,900 RPM. The cutting diameter ranges from 1.346 to 2 inches, with a 0.75-inch arbor hole for secure mounting. Through-coolant capability supports extended tool life and chip evacuation during high-feed passes. This cutter is installed and operated by machinists and tool-and-die professionals working with CNC machining centers.

This face mill is suited for a range of milling operations including face milling, helical interpolation, plunging, ramping, and slotting. The right-hand cutting direction and R220.21 series geometry make it a practical choice for production environments running high-feed strategies on ferrous and non-ferrous workpieces. The 0.08-inch maximum depth of cut is optimized for high-feed, low-engagement toolpaths that increase table feed rates while reducing spindle load.

Installation Notes

Installation and setup should be performed by a qualified machinist familiar with CNC milling equipment. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is in a safe, locked-out state before mounting or indexing inserts. Verify arbor and keyway dimensions against machine specifications before assembly. Follow the machine tool manufacturer guidelines for torque and runout verification during setup.
