Seco 02554396 Milling Insert SNHQ110304TL4-M07 F40M Carbide

Product Description

The SECO 02554396 is a solid carbide milling insert carrying ANSI and ISO designation SNHQ110304TL4-M07 in manufacturer grade F40M. It features a square insert shape with a 90-degree included angle, four cutting edges, and a left-hand cutting orientation. The insert is PVD-coated with a TiAlN and TiN dual-layer finish for wear resistance across demanding milling applications. A negative rake angle of 20 degrees combined with a T-Land cutting edge style provides edge strength when cutting harder workpiece materials. Thickness measures 0.1063 inches and the inscribed circle diameter is 0.4331 inches, placing this insert in the SNHQ-11 series.

This insert is suited for face milling, shoulder milling, and general-purpose milling operations in both light and moderate cutting conditions. Primary workpiece materials include steel, cast iron, superalloys, and titanium. Secondary material applications extend to cast iron and non-ferrous metals. The M07 chip breaker geometry is optimized for medium cutting conditions across these material groups. The insert is compatible with the SECO 335.19-11 cutter series and is held in place via screw clamping. Both residential shop and industrial production environments utilize this insert for steel, stainless steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metal, and superalloy machining.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machining professionals or CNC tooling technicians. Power down and lock out the machine spindle before removing or seating inserts. Use the correct torx or hex key to tighten the clamping screw to the cutter body manufacturer's specification — do not overtighten. Inspect the cutter pocket seating surface for wear or debris before installing a new insert to ensure proper contact and edge alignment.
