Seco 74037215 Milling Insert XCKX13T308R-ME10 T25M Carbide

Product Description

The SECO 74037215 is a solid carbide milling insert carrying the ANSI/ISO designation XCKX13T308R-ME10, designed for use in indexable milling cutters operating on steel, stainless steel, superalloys, and titanium workpieces. The insert is manufactured from medium grain solid carbide with a CVD-applied TiCN coating and is assigned the T25M manufacturer grade, which is suited for these demanding material groups. The parallelogram-shaped, right-hand insert features a positive rake angle of 14 degrees, a 7-degree relief angle, a honed cutting edge style, and two usable cutting edges per insert. It is held in the cutter body by screw clamping and is compatible with the R215.59-08 cutter series. Licensed HVAC technicians will not encounter this part, but machining professionals and tool crib personnel will find all critical specs consolidated here.

This insert is intended for single-sided use in precision milling applications involving ferrous and high-performance alloy materials. The ME10 chip breaker geometry is optimized for medium-grain cutting conditions across the P, M, and S material application codes, covering general steel, stainless steel, superalloys, and titanium. The insert fits the XCKX-13 series tooling platform and is identified by insert size code 13T308. Typical installation scenarios include face milling, shoulder milling, and general metal removal operations on CNC machining centers in industrial production or job shop environments.

Key Features

• CVD-applied TiCN coating for wear resistance in steel and superalloy cutting
• Positive rake angle (14 degrees) and honed cutting edge reduce cutting forces
• ME10 chip breaker geometry suited for medium-grain material removal
• Right-hand, single-sided parallelogram insert with screw-mount retention
• Two cutting edges per insert for extended tool life per piece
• Compatible with R215.59-08 cutter series

Compatibility

Designed for use with the SECO R215.59-08 cutter series. Insert size code 13T308 fits XCKX-13 series toolholders. Material application codes P, M, and S confirm fitment for steel, stainless steel, superalloys, and titanium workpiece materials.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or tooling technicians. Power down and lock out the spindle before indexing or replacing inserts. Use the appropriate Torx or hex key as specified by the cutter body manufacturer when seating the clamping screw; do not overtighten. Inspect the insert pocket and seating surface for chips or debris before installing a new insert to ensure proper seating and runout control.
