Manufactured in the TGP25 grade with a Duratomic TiCN\/Al2O3 coating, this insert delivers consistent edge performance across interrupted cuts and continuous turning passes. The neutral hand orientation and double-end design maximize usable cutting edges per insert. With a cutting width of 0.236 inches, a cutting height of 0.177 inches, and a corner radius of 0.031 inches, it suits close-tolerance grooving work where dimensional repeatability is critical. Licensed machinists and CNC operators handling production turning work are the primary installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis insert is part of SECO's MDT (Multi-Directional Turning) series and is sized to the LCMF160608 format using style designation LCMF160608-0600-FT with the FT chipbreaker geometry. It is suited for machining cast iron, stainless steel, and carbon or alloy steel. The Duratomic coating process enhances thermal resistance and wear life, making this insert a practical choice for moderate to high material removal rates in both roughing and semi-finishing passes on those workpiece materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide substrate, material grade C5, with Duratomic TiCN\/Al2O3 coated finish for extended tool life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTGP25 manufacturer grade optimized for cast iron, stainless steel, and steel workpieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNeutral hand orientation allows use in both left-hand and right-hand toolholders\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDouble-end design provides two usable cutting edges per insert\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFT chipbreaker geometry supports controlled chip formation during grooving and turning passes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e7-degree relief angle reduces flank wear and supports clean entry into grooves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in MDT-series toolholders accepting the LCMF160608 insert size.

Confirm the machine spindle is fully stopped and the turret is indexed to a safe position before changing inserts. Use a torx or hex key of the correct size for the toolholder clamping screw and torque per the toolholder manufacturer specification. Inspect the insert pocket and seating surfaces for chips or debris before seating the new insert to avoid micro-fracture at the cutting edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: LCMF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Size Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 160608\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle Designation\u003c\/strong\u003e: LCMF160608-0600-FT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: MDT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: TGP25\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: C5\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Duratomic TiCN\/Al2O3 (Coated)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChipbreaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: FT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Hand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Neutral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle or Double End\u003c\/strong\u003e: Double\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Cutting Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.236 inches (6.00 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.177 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.630 inches (15.90 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.031 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRelief Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFull Radius Insert\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cast Iron, Stainless Steel, Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Order Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: SECO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 02625437\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SECO TOOLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51558408552754,"sku":"02625437","price":644.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/d100557259a8b9c2b7579a0d6895c8c7.jpg?v=1786411535","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/seco-02625437-turning-insert-tgp25-solid-carbide-0-236-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
