Seco 02642870 Square-shoulder Face Mill 2 in 4 Insert

Product Description

The SECO 02642870 is an indexable square-shoulder face mill designed for precision milling operations in metalworking and machining environments. With a 2-inch maximum cutting diameter and a 3/4-inch arbor hole diameter, this cutter accepts four XNEX 0806 inserts and operates at a 0/90-degree lead angle with a negative rake geometry. Maximum depth of cut reaches 0.295 inches, making it well-suited for shoulder milling and slotting applications. Through-coolant capability supports chip evacuation and tool life at higher feed rates. This tool is installed and operated by machinists and CNC tooling technicians in production and job-shop settings.

The 02642870 belongs to the SECO Square 6 series and is configured for right-hand cutting with a medium pitch layout across its four insert pockets. It is intended for slotting operations on vertical and horizontal machining centers where square shoulders and accurate wall profiles are required. The Cutter Style designation is R220.96. Its overall height of 1.57 inches and hub diameter of 47 mm fit standard arbor setups common in both production and prototype machining environments.
