Sandvik Coromant 5762566 Indexable Toolholder Shim

Product Description

The SANDVIK COROMANT 5762566 is an indexable toolholder shim designed to provide precise seating and support for indexable inserts in turning and boring toolholders. Shim style 5322 331 (catalog number 5322 331-06), this component measures 3/8 inch inscribed circle with a thickness of 3/16 inch (0.1875 inches). It is configured for positive rake geometry and supports both left-hand and right-hand cutting directions. Machinists and toolroom technicians install this shim beneath the indexable insert to protect the toolholder pocket, maintain consistent insert height, and extend toolholder service life across production turning operations.

This shim is suited for use in metal cutting environments where toolholder pocket wear or damage requires a precision replacement seating component. It is applicable to toolholders accepting a 3/8 inch inscribed circle insert, with positive rake configuration. Typical installation scenarios include CNC turning centers and manual lathes in job shops, production facilities, and maintenance toolrooms. The part ships individually (package quantity of 1) and is sold in minimum order quantities of 10 units.
