Seco 02615908 Turning Insert Snmp 432-MF1 TS2000 Carbide

Product Description

The SECO 02615908 is a solid carbide turning insert in the SNMP-MF1 series, designed for precision metal cutting in CNC and manual turning operations. It carries a TS2000 manufacturer grade and features a multilayer PVD coating combining TiAlN and TiN for extended tool life and heat resistance. The insert has a square shape with a 90-degree included angle, a 0.5-inch inscribed circle, and a 0.0315-inch corner radius. With 8 available cutting edges and a negative rake geometry, it delivers consistent performance across high-demand roughing and finishing passes on stainless steel, superalloys, and titanium.

This insert is suited for CNC turning centers and manual lathes in job shop, production, and aerospace machining environments. It supports boring, facing, and turning operations. Primary workpiece materials are stainless steel, superalloys, and titanium (ISO material codes M and S). Secondary applications include steel, cast iron, and hard materials (ISO codes P, K, and H). The MF1 chip breaker geometry is optimized for medium finishing cuts where chip control and surface finish consistency are critical. It conforms to ANSI and ISO standards and carries ISO code SNMG120408-MF1.

Compatibility

Compatible with SNMP-style toolholders that accept clamp, pin, or lever lock insert retention. Designed for use on stainless steel, superalloys, titanium, steel, cast iron, and hard materials. Verify toolholder bore and seating pocket dimensions before installation. Insert size code is 432; ISO code SNMG120408-MF1.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machining professionals using appropriate insert toolholders with clamp, pin, or lever lock retention. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and the toolholder is secured in the turret before seating or replacing inserts. Inspect the pocket seating surface for chips or debris that could misalign the insert and cause premature edge failure. Follow the toolholder manufacturer torque specifications for clamping screws; do not overtighten.
