Seco 02656118 Milling Insert XOMX060202R-M05 MP3000 Carbide

Product Description

The SECO 02656118 is a solid carbide milling insert carrying ANSI and ISO designation XOMX060202R-M05 in manufacturer grade MP3000. It is a single-sided, parallelogram-shaped insert with a positive rake geometry and a 15-degree relief angle, ground to a honed cutting edge style. The insert features a PVD-applied TiAlN coating over a micrograin carbide substrate, delivering hardness and heat resistance suited to demanding milling applications. Two cutting edges are available per insert. It is held in the cutter body by a screw clamp and is designed for right-hand cutting. Licensed machinists and tooling technicians install and index this insert in compatible milling cutter bodies.

This insert is intended for milling steel, stainless steel, and hard materials, covering ISO material groups P, M, and H. The M05 chip breaker geometry is optimized for moderate feeds and interrupted cuts in these material families. Typical applications include face milling, shoulder milling, and profile milling operations in job shop and production environments where close tolerances and surface finish consistency are priorities. The XOMX-06 series insert is compatible with the R217.69-06 cutter series.

Key Features

• Solid micrograin carbide substrate in MP3000 grade for toughness in hard and difficult-to-machine materials
• PVD TiAlN coating provides thermal stability and wear resistance at the cutting edge
• Positive rake angle of 20.2 degrees reduces cutting forces and heat generation
• Honed cutting edge style improves edge stability and reduces micro-chipping
• Two cutting edges per insert maximize tooling economy
• M05 chip breaker geometry suited to steel and stainless steel at moderate feed rates
• Right-hand, screw-clamp insert for secure, repeatable seating in the cutter pocket

Compatibility

Compatible with R217.69-06 series milling cutter bodies. Insert series is XOMX-06 with size code 060202. ANSI and ISO code XOMX060202R-M05 applies.

Installation Notes

This insert is installed and indexed by a qualified machinist or tooling technician. Always de-energize and lock out the machine spindle before changing inserts. Use the correct torx or hex key to tighten the clamping screw to the cutter body specification; do not overtighten, as this can crack the carbide insert. Inspect the pocket seat and clamping screw for wear or debris before seating a new insert to ensure proper contact and runout.
