Sandvik Coromant 5762555 Indexable Toolholder Shim 3/8 in

Product Description

The SANDVIK COROMANT 5762555 is an indexable toolholder shim designed to precisely seat and support indexable inserts in toolholder pockets. Measuring 3/8 inch inscribed circle with a thickness of 3/16 inch (0.1875 inch), this shim maintains insert seating geometry and protects the toolholder pocket from wear and damage during cutting operations. Carrying the 5322 267 shim style designation, it accommodates positive rake configurations and is suited for left hand, neutral, and right hand cutting directions. Machinists and tooling technicians install this component as part of routine insert changes or toolholder pocket maintenance in production and job-shop environments.

This shim is used in indexable toolholder assemblies where insert pocket integrity and consistent seating depth are critical to dimensional accuracy and tool life. It is applicable across a range of turning and boring toolholder setups that use 3/8 inch inscribed circle inserts with positive rake geometries. Each order includes one shim. The part is sold individually and is intended for professionals maintaining or rebuilding indexable toolholder assemblies in metalworking and machining applications.
