Sandvik Coromant 5762345 Indexable Toolholder Shim

Product Description

The SANDVIK COROMANT 5762345 is a shim designed for indexable toolholders, providing a precise seating surface for indexable inserts in turning and boring operations. This shim follows the 5321 067 shim style and measures 0.25 inches thick with a 1/4 inch inscribed circle, making it a direct-fit component for compatible indexable toolholder pockets. It supports a positive rake geometry and is manufactured for both left-hand and right-hand cutting directions. Machinists and toolroom technicians install this shim as a replacement or spare to maintain proper insert positioning and protect the toolholder pocket from wear and impact during cutting.

This shim is suited for use in CNC turning centers, lathes, and manual turning applications where indexable inserts with a 1/4 inch inscribed circle are employed. It is appropriate for both production shop and job shop environments. The positive rake configuration is commonly selected for finishing operations and softer workpiece materials where reduced cutting forces are a priority. One shim is included per order.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician with the machine powered down and all axes at rest.

Use manufacturer-recommended torque procedures for insert clamping hardware and inspect the shim for damage or deformation before each insert change. Do not reuse shims that show visible wear, cracking, or deformation in the seating surface.
