It carries the DNMG431-FF2 industry standard designation and is manufactured in the TP1501 grade under SECO Duratomic coating classification. The multi-layer CVD coating stack — TiCN, Al2O3, and Cr — delivers wear resistance and thermal stability across a range of cutting conditions. The insert features a 55-degree diamond shape with a 0.5 inch inscribed circle, a 1\/64 inch corner radius, and a neutral hand orientation. Four available cutting edges make it an economical choice for high-volume production turning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis insert is suited for turning, facing, boring, and back turning operations in both CNC and manual lathe setups. It is engineered primarily for steel (ISO material code P) with secondary suitability for cast iron and hard materials (ISO codes K and H). The FF2 chip breaker geometry and honed cutting edge style make it appropriate for finishing and semi-finishing passes at controlled depths. Licensed machinists and CNC operators working in job shop, production, or maintenance machining environments are the typical installers. The maximum depth of cut reaches 0.5945 inches, supporting moderate material removal alongside its finishing capability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCVD Duratomic coating: TiCN, Al2O3, and Cr layers for thermal and abrasion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFF2 chip breaker geometry optimized for finishing and semi-finishing operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFour cutting edges per insert for extended tool life and lower cost per edge\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNeutral hand orientation compatible with standard DNMG toolholders\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHoned cutting edge style reduces micro-chipping on entry and exit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with clamp, pin, and lever lock insert holding methods\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a direct replacement or equivalent for DNMG431-FF2 toolholder systems conforming to ANSI and ISO standards.

Always power down and lock out the machine spindle before seating or indexing inserts. Use the appropriate torque wrench and manufacturer-specified clamping hardware for the toolholder type — clamp, pin, or lever lock — to ensure the insert is fully seated against the pocket walls. Inspect the insert pocket and seating surfaces for chips or debris before each insert change to avoid micro-fractures at the cutting edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: DNMG\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIndustry Standard Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: DNMG431-FF2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISO Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: DNMG150404-FF2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: TP1501\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating Classification\u003c\/strong\u003e: Duratomic\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating Process\u003c\/strong\u003e: CVD\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating Layers\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiCN, Al2O3, Cr\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Diamond 55 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 55 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChip Breaker\u003c\/strong\u003e: FF2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Edge Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Honed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Hand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Neutral\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Cutting Edges\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInscribed Circle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCorner Radius\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/64 inch (0.0157 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/16 inch (0.1874 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.2204 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHole Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2028 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Depth of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5945 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRelief Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRake\u003c\/strong\u003e: Negative\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClearance Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: N\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTolerance Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: M\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsert Holding Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Clamp, Pin, Lever Lock\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel (P10, P20)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSecondary Workpiece Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cast Iron, Hard Material\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMulti-Use Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Back Turning, Boring, Facing, Turning\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI, ISO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 per package\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Order Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.03 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: SECO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 02960018\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SECO TOOLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51560516026674,"sku":"02960018","price":320.65,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/431a704ca149d6b496501f3584d2108a_fb0a31ed-1cd9-4cbb-a318-14cbdcb98b33.jpg?v=1786453167","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/seco-02960018-dnmg431-ff2-turning-insert-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
