Seco recently added a new helical tool to its Square T4-08 line of square shoulder mills that feature four cutting edges and an innovative tangential cutter design. Ideal for slotting and contouring/shouldering applications, the Helical T4-08 excels in machining challenging materials such as cast iron, steel, stainless steel and alloys.Like other products within the line, the Helical T4-08’s strong, reliable pocket seats combined with multi-edge inserts optimise cutting stability and allow for clean 90-degree walls. The inserts mount tangentially in the cutter so that the cutting forces impact the thickest parts of the inserts, allowing manufacturers to achieve the required levels of strength for increased depths of cut with small diameters.In addition to its high metal removal rates, users will also benefit from the Helical T4-08’s versatility, with options that include normal and close pitch variations, M08 and MD08 insert geometries and MP3000, MK2050 and F40M grades.
