Sandvik Coromant 5762626 Indexable Toolholder Shim

Product Description

The SANDVIK COROMANT 5762626 is a steel shim designed for indexable toolholders in turning and boring applications. With a thickness of 0.25 inches and an inscribed circle of 0.5 inches, this shim seats the insert at the correct height and angle within the toolholder pocket. It is machined to the 5322 425 shim style with a positive rake geometry, and it accommodates left-hand, neutral, and right-hand cutting directions. Steel construction provides the rigidity and dimensional stability required to maintain insert positioning under cutting loads. This component is installed by machinists and toolroom technicians during insert seat setup or toolholder reconditioning.

This shim is suited for use in indexable toolholder assemblies on CNC lathes, turning centers, and manual engine lathes where 0.5-inch inscribed-circle inserts are used. The 5322 series designation identifies the shim geometry and ensures correct fit within compatible 5322-series toolholder pockets. The positive rake configuration is typical of finishing and general-purpose turning operations. It is sold individually and ordered in multiples of 10.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a machinist or toolroom technician during toolholder setup or insert seat service. Ensure the toolholder is removed from the machine and all moving axes are locked or powered down before disassembling the insert pocket. Inspect the shim seat for chips or debris before placing the shim to maintain correct insert orientation. Use only manufacturer-specified torx or hex keys when securing the insert clamp screw to avoid damaging the shim or pocket.
