Seco 17016467 Square End Mill 2 in 6 Flute Cobalt Ticn

Product Description

The SECO 17016467 is a cobalt square end mill designed for high-performance material removal in demanding machining environments. Built from M42 cobalt steel with a TiCN (Titanium Carbonitride) coating, this tool delivers improved hardness and wear resistance compared to standard HSS tooling. It features a 2 inch cutting diameter, 6 spiral flutes with a 30-degree helix angle, and a 2 inch length of cut. The single-end, centercutting design supports both plunge and peripheral milling operations. It is part of SECO series SPC408 and is intended for installation in CNC machining centers and manual mills by machinists working in precision metal fabrication and general machining.

This end mill is suited for cutting steel, stainless steel, cast iron, aluminum and other non-ferrous metals, and high-temperature alloys. The TiCN coating extends tool life when running higher surface speeds and feeds in these materials. The stub length configuration keeps the tool rigid during aggressive passes. The right-hand cut and right-hand spiral flute geometry make it compatible with standard CNC spindle setups. It fits applications requiring a 1-1/4 inch shank interface in standard end mill holders or collet chucks.

Key Features

• M42 cobalt construction for improved heat and wear resistance over standard HSS
• TiCN coating for extended tool life in ferrous and high-temp alloy materials
• 6 spiral flutes at 30-degree helix angle for efficient chip evacuation
• Centercutting design allows direct plunge entry into workpiece
• Right-hand cut and right-hand flute for standard spindle compatibility
• Stub length type for maximum rigidity during heavy cuts

Compatibility

Designed for use in standard end mill holders and collet chucks accepting a 1-1/4 inch shank diameter. Compatible workpiece materials include steel, stainless steel, cast iron, aluminum and non-ferrous metals, and high-temperature alloys per SECO series SPC408 specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist following standard toolholding procedures for end mills. Ensure the shank is fully seated and secured in the holder to the recommended engagement depth before operation. Verify spindle runout does not exceed the specified TIR maximum of 0.0010 inches before beginning a cut. Never exceed the tool's rated cutting parameters for the workpiece material, and always use appropriate cutting fluid or coolant for the material being machined.
