Seco Tools Perfomax

Product system overview

Seco Perfomax is an indexable-insert drilling family for productive medium- and large-diameter holemaking. The drill body, center and peripheral insert positions, insert geometry, grade, diameter, L/D, shank, and coolant conditions must be specified together.

Industries and applications

• Production drilling where indexable center and peripheral inserts support diameter range, chip control, and cost-per-edge decisions.
• Steel, cast iron, stainless, and other material applications requiring position-specific insert geometry and grade selection.
• Medium- and large-diameter holes where body generation, L/D, coolant, and both insert positions are managed as one assembly.

Technical and quote details

• Seco identifies Perfomax as an indexable insert drill family with application-specific bodies and inserts.
• Product records distinguish center and peripheral insert roles, geometry, grade, and item identifiers.
• Newer Perfomax designs include revised flute and body features; generation and body designation must remain explicit.
• Body records must retain SD designation, diameter, L/D, shank, flute configuration, and coolant delivery.
• Each insert position must retain its own item code, geometry, grade, seat, screw, and recommended cutting data.

Selection notes

Build the assembly record with the drill body plus both insert positions, screws, torque, diameter, L/D, work material, coolant, and cutting data.

Track Perfomax generation and source revision so future replacements do not silently cross body designs.

Variables to validate

• Center and peripheral inserts are not interchangeable roles.
• Perfomax generation, body designation, insert seat, geometry, and grade must be verified before substitution.
• Do not reuse cutting data across body diameters, L/D series, insert grades, or material groups without current Seco guidance.
