Seco 02642872 Indexable Square-shoulder Face Mill 2 Inches

Product Description

The SECO 02642872 is an indexable square-shoulder face mill designed for precision milling applications in metalworking and machining environments. Built to the Square 6 series with a 2-inch maximum cutting diameter and a 3/4-inch arbor hole, this cutter accepts five XNEX 0806 inserts held by clamp and screw. The 0/90 degree lead angle delivers true 90-degree shoulder milling, and the negative rake geometry suits a wide range of workpiece materials. Through-coolant capability keeps cutting temperatures in check during sustained milling cycles. Licensed machinists and CNC operators working in job shop or production environments are the primary installers and users of this tool.

This face mill fits close-pitch milling setups where material removal rate and shoulder accuracy are priorities. The right-hand cutting direction and close pitch configuration with five flutes make it well suited for light-to-moderate radial engagement passes on ferrous and non-ferrous stock. Through-coolant support makes it compatible with machine spindles equipped with internal coolant delivery. The cutter body style is R220.96, which determines the insert pocket geometry and compatible insert selection.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a qualified machinist or tooling technician. The machine spindle must be fully powered down and locked out before mounting or removing the cutter body. Verify arbor and keyway dimensions match the machine spindle before mounting. Inserts should be seated and torqued per the insert manufacturer specifications using the correct Torx or hex key; do not overtighten or mix insert grades without confirming feed and speed compatibility.
