Seco 74016524 Carbide Cutoff Insert T25M 0.2in Series 150.10

Product Description

The SECO 74016524 is a solid carbide cutoff insert designed for parting and grooving operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. It features a T25M manufacturer grade with a CVD-applied TiC/TiCN/TiN multilayer coating for extended tool life across a broad range of workpiece materials. The insert has a 0.2-inch cutting width, a 0.01-inch corner radius, and a right-hand 6-degree lead angle. It is held in place by a clamp-style toolholder and is a single-end insert. Machinists and toolroom technicians specify this grade for its wear resistance and thermal stability during cutoff operations.

This insert is suited for cutoff and parting applications in production turning environments, including both high-volume shops and job shops running mixed materials. The T25M grade and universal primary workpiece material classification make it a versatile choice for steel, stainless, cast iron, and similar materials. It fits Series 150.10 cutoff toolholders. The insert ships individually but carries a minimum order quantity of 10 units, making it appropriate for stocking at the machine or in the tool crib.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or toolroom technicians. Power down and lock out the machine before seating or replacing the insert. Ensure the clamp and toolholder pocket are free of chips and debris before installing the insert to maintain proper seating and cutting geometry. Do not exceed the toolholder manufacturer's specified overhang or depth-of-cut recommendations for this insert size.
