Seco 17014865 Roughing End Mill 1 in 5 Flute Cobalt Tialn

Product Description

The SECO 17014865 is a single-end roughing end mill designed for aggressive material removal in milling operations. Built from M42 cobalt high-speed steel and coated with TiAlN for extended tool life at elevated cutting temperatures, this end mill features a 1 inch cutting diameter and 5 flutes arranged in a right-hand spiral configuration. The roughing geometry distributes cutting forces across the flute profile, reducing vibration and chatter during heavy stock removal passes. It is installed and operated by machinists and CNC operators working in job shops, maintenance facilities, and production environments.

This end mill is suited for roughing passes on ferrous and non-ferrous workpiece materials where high metal removal rates are required. The 4 inch length of cut and 6.5 inch overall length make it appropriate for deeper cavity milling and peripheral roughing in vertical machining centers and manual knee mills. The 30-degree maximum helix angle supports efficient chip evacuation in straight-walled pockets and slots. Coolant-through is not supported, so external flood or mist coolant is the recommended cooling method during operation.

Key Features

• M42 cobalt construction for heat and wear resistance in demanding cuts
• TiAlN coating extends tool life at high cutting temperatures
• 5-flute roughing geometry reduces chatter and distributes cutting load
• Right-hand cut and right-hand spiral flute direction for standard spindle operation
• 4 inch length of cut supports deep cavity and peripheral roughing applications
• Single-end design; part of the REM445 series

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement roughing end mill compatible with standard 1 inch straight-shank tool holders used in vertical machining centers and manual milling machines.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a qualified machinist or CNC operator. The shank must be fully seated and secured in a collet or end mill holder rated for the 1 inch shank diameter before spindle engagement. Confirm runout with a dial indicator after tool changes to stay within tolerance for roughing operations. Do not use this end mill for finish passes; follow roughing cuts with an appropriate finishing tool to achieve final dimensional tolerances.
