Seco 02810096 Indexable Face Mill 1.97in 5 Flute

Product Description

The SECO 02810096 is an indexable chamfer angle face mill designed for precision facing operations in metalworking applications. Part of the Double Octo 05 series and styled as the R220.48 cutter, it accepts 5 ON.U05-compatible inserts and delivers a right-hand cutting direction with a negative rake angle of -8 degrees. The 1.97-inch minimum cutting diameter expands to a maximum body diameter of 2.30 inches, with a maximum depth of cut of 0.118 inches. Through-coolant capability supports chip evacuation and tool life during high-speed operations. The 3/4-inch arbor hole provides a secure, centered mount. This tool is installed by machinists and CNC operators in production and job-shop environments.

This face mill is suited for facing and surface milling operations on ferrous and non-ferrous workpieces in both manual and CNC milling setups. The normal pitch configuration and 5-flute count balance chip load and feed rate across a range of materials. Through-coolant delivery directly to the cutting zone makes it a practical choice for high-spindle-speed applications where thermal management is critical. The R220.48 cutter style is a standard platform in indexable milling programs used across aerospace, automotive, and general machining environments.

Key Features

• Indexable design with 5 insert pockets accepting ON.U05, ONEU 05, and ONMU 05 insert sizes
• Through-coolant port for direct coolant delivery at the cutting edge
• Right-hand cut with negative rake (-8 degrees) for controlled chip formation
• Maximum rated speed of 14,400 RPM supports high-productivity milling
• 3/4-inch arbor hole with 0.32-inch keyway width for positive rotational drive
• Steel toolholder body for rigidity and resistance to deflection under load

Compatibility

Compatible insert size codes include ON.U05, ONEU 05, and ONMU 05. The cutter style is R220.48, also referenced by manufacturers catalog number R220.48-02.00-05-05SA. Designed as a standard indexable face mill for use with 3/4-inch arbor milling machines and machining centers.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC setup technician. Ensure the machine spindle is fully powered down and locked out before mounting or removing the cutter body. Inserts are secured via screw-holding method — use the appropriate torx or hex key and follow the insert manufacturer torque guidance for the fastener size. Confirm arbor fit and keyway alignment before running the tool at speed.
