Seco 02642889 Square-shoulder Face Mill 5 in 11 Insert

Product Description

The SECO 02642889 is an indexable square-shoulder face mill engineered for precision slotting and face milling operations on machining centers and milling equipment. Built to the Square 6 series standard, this right-hand cutter accepts 11 XNEX 0806 inserts held by clamp and screw, delivering a medium-pitch configuration suited to stable, aggressive material removal. The 5-inch cutting diameter and 1.5-inch arbor hole accommodate heavy-duty setups, while the through-coolant design directs fluid directly to the cutting zone to manage heat and extend insert life. Maximum depth of cut reaches 0.295 inches at a 0/90 lead angle with a negative rake geometry.

This face mill is designed for use in CNC milling and machining center environments where square-shoulder profiling and slotting are required. The 0/90 lead angle produces a true 90-degree shoulder, making it well suited for stepped workpieces, pockets, and shoulder milling applications. The through-coolant capability supports continuous cutting in ferrous and non-ferrous materials where thermal control is critical. A keyway width of 0.63 inches and 90 mm hub diameter ensure secure arbor mounting for high-feed passes. Machinists and CNC operators in production shops and job shops are the primary users of this cutter body.

Installation Notes

Installation and setup should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC tooling technician. Ensure the machine spindle is fully stopped and locked out before mounting or removing the cutter body. Verify arbor fit and torque all retention hardware to the machine tool manufacturer specifications before running. Confirm through-coolant passages are clear and that coolant pressure is within the machine and toolholder specifications before initiating a cut.
