Seco 02642874 Indexable Square-shoulder Face Mill 2.5in

Product Description

The SECO 02642874 is an indexable square-shoulder face mill designed for precision slotting and face milling operations in metalworking environments. Built to the Square 6 series with a Cutter Style R220.96, this tool accepts 6 XNEX 0806 inserts arranged at a 0/90 lead angle with a negative rake geometry. The 2.5-inch cutting diameter pairs with a 0.75-inch arbor hole for secure machine spindle mounting. Maximum depth of cut is 0.295 inches, and through-coolant capability supports extended insert life and chip evacuation during demanding cuts. Licensed machinists and tooling specialists install and configure this type of cutter in CNC machining centers.

This face mill is suited for medium-pitch slotting operations on right-hand cutting setups. The Square 6 series designation indicates compatibility with XNEX 0806 insert geometry, which provides a true 90-degree shoulder and clean wall profiles. Typical applications include horizontal and vertical CNC milling of ferrous and non-ferrous metals where a consistent square shoulder and controlled chip load are required. The through-coolant port directs fluid directly to the cutting zone, making this tool practical for high-feed or extended run cycles where heat management is critical.
