Description
The SECO 17013496 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 TiCN for improved wear resistance and heat performance, this tool handles tough ferrous and non-ferrous materials under demanding cutting conditions. The 4-flute, right-hand spiral configuration provides a balance of chip evacuation and surface contact. With a 3/4-inch mill diameter and 3 inches length of cut, it is suited for roughing passes where stock removal rate is the priority. Licensed machinists and tool-and-die professionals are the primary users of this end mill series.
This end mill is built for roughing applications in vertical and horizontal milling machines, CNC machining centers, and manual knee mills. The regular-length geometry and 5-1/4-inch overall length make it a practical fit for general-purpose roughing in job shop and production environments. The TiCN coating extends tool life compared to uncoated cobalt tooling, particularly in interrupted cuts and harder workpiece materials. The 30-degree maximum helix angle supports efficient chip flow during heavier cuts.
Key Features
- M42 cobalt construction for elevated hardness and heat resistance
- TiCN coating for improved wear resistance and surface lubricity
- 4-flute, right-hand spiral geometry optimized for roughing passes
- 3-inch length of cut with 3/4-inch shank diameter for rigidity
- Single-end design in regular length series REM710
- Non-center-cutting not intended for plunge entry cuts
Compatibility
Designed as a direct-fit roughing end mill for standard 3/4-inch collet chucks, end mill holders, and Weldon-style side-lock holders used in CNC and manual milling setups.
Installation Notes
Installation is performed by machining professionals following standard toolroom practices. Ensure the milling machine spindle is fully stopped and the machine is in a safe lockout state before changing tooling. Seat the shank fully into the holder and verify runout with a dial indicator before beginning cuts. This end mill is not center-cutting and should not be used for direct plunge operations without a pre-drilled entry hole.
