Iscar 5520183 Tse Face Mill Shim F45ST

Product Description

The ISCAR 5520183 is a TSE-series shim designed for indexable face mill toolholders. Shims of this type seat between the toolholder pocket and the indexable insert, maintaining precise insert positioning and protecting the pocket face from wear and damage during cutting operations. This shim is compatible with the F45ST toolholder style and is manufactured to OEM dimensional tolerances. Machinists and tooling technicians working with indexable milling systems install this component as a standard part of insert replacement and toolholder maintenance routines.

This shim is intended for use in face milling applications that use the F45ST toolholder platform, specifically the F45ST D080-27 complete toolholder assembly. It is suited for production and job-shop environments where indexable tooling is regularly cycled and pocket protection is a maintenance priority. The TSE shim style is specific to the ISCAR TSE series toolholder family.
