Seco 02636650 Carbide Cutoff Insert TGP45 Series 150.10

Product Description

The SECO 02636650 is a solid carbide cutoff insert designed for parting and grooving operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. It carries a TGP45 manufacturer grade with a CVD-applied Duratomic coating combining TiCN and Al2O3 layers for thermal resistance and wear protection. The insert has a cutting width of 0.161 inches and a corner radius of 0.009 inches, with a neutral lead angle suited to straight plunge cutting. It is a single-end insert held by clamp and belongs to SECO's Series 150.10 system. Machinists and toolroom technicians handling high-volume parting work will recognize the insert size code 4 seat designation and C5 material grade classification.

This insert is intended for cut-off applications on a universal primary workpiece material range, covering a broad spectrum of ferrous and non-ferrous stock. It fits into Series 150.10 compatible clamp-style cutoff toolholders and supports a maximum depth of cut of 3.00 mm. The neutral hand and neutral lead angle make it appropriate for standard OD parting setups where side forces must be minimized. Chipbreaker geometry is designated 14. This insert is sold individually but carries a minimum order quantity of 10 pieces.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician. The machine spindle must be brought to a full stop and all motion locked out before seating or removing the insert. Ensure the clamp and toolholder pocket are free of chips and debris before seating the insert, as contamination under the insert base can cause breakage under cutting load. Verify that the toolholder series and seat size match this insert before engaging a cut.
