Seco 02623072 Turning Insert TGP25 Solid Carbide

Product Description

The SECO 02623072 is a solid carbide multi-directional turning insert designed for precision material removal in CNC turning applications. Manufactured to the LCMF style with a neutral hand orientation, this insert carries the TGP25 grade designation and features a Duratomic TiCN/Al2O3 coating process engineered to extend tool life under demanding cutting conditions. With a maximum cutting width of 0.157 inches, a cutting height of 0.177 inches, and a corner radius of 0.031 inches, the 02623072 delivers consistent chip control via the FT chipbreaker geometry. It is double-ended, effectively doubling usable edge life per insert. Installation and use are intended for trained machinists and tooling specialists working with indexable insert toolholders.

This insert is designed for use in multi-directional turning operations across a range of common workpiece materials. Primary workpiece materials include cast iron, stainless steel, and steel, corresponding to ISO material codes K, M, and P. The MDT series insert fits LCMF-compatible toolholders and is suited to both roughing and finishing passes depending on feed and depth of cut parameters. The style code LCMF160408-0400-FT identifies the precise geometry for toolholder matching. The insert is sold individually per package with a minimum order quantity of 10 units.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction with Duratomic TiCN/Al2O3 coating for extended wear resistance
• Double-ended design provides two usable cutting edges per insert
• FT chipbreaker geometry supports controlled chip evacuation during turning
• Neutral hand orientation allows flexible toolholder mounting
• 7-degree relief angle suits general turning operations on ferrous and stainless workpieces
• LCMF insert style with size code 160408 for precise toolholder compatibility

Compatibility

Designed for use in LCMF-compatible multi-directional turning toolholders. Style code LCMF160408-0400-FT should be matched to the toolholder pocket specification before installation.

Installation Notes

Insert indexing and replacement should be performed by a qualified machinist with the machine in a full stop, locked-out state per LOTO procedures. Verify toolholder pocket condition and clamping mechanism before seating the insert. Do not exceed the toolholder manufacturer's recommended feed rate or depth of cut for this insert style. Inspect cutting edges for wear or chipping before each use.
