Sandvik Coromant 8089753 Indexable Shim Modular Head

Product Description

The SANDVIK COROMANT 8089753 is a precision-ground shim designed for indexable tooling systems with modular heads. It seats between the insert and the tool body, providing a stable, repeatable seating surface that protects the pocket and maintains correct insert geometry. This shim follows the 5322 shim style and is engineered for use with cylindrical insert shapes on a positive rake configuration. Dimensionally, it measures 3.74 inches in length, 1.54 inches in width, and 0.44 inches in height, with a package weight of 0.44 pounds. It is installed by tool-and-die technicians, machinists, and CNC setup personnel as part of routine insert changes or tool body maintenance.

This shim is suited for modular head indexable tooling setups in precision machining environments, including turning, boring, and milling applications where a 12 mm inscribed circle insert is specified. The positive rake geometry is appropriate for finishing and semi-finishing operations on ferrous and non-ferrous materials. It is intended as a direct replacement or supplemental shim in any 5322-style tool body that accepts a cylindrical insert with a 12 mm inscribed circle. The catalog number 5322 160-01 identifies it within the SANDVIK COROMANT system for cross-referencing against existing tooling documentation.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or CNC tooling technicians. Before replacing or seating a shim, ensure the machine spindle is locked out and all motion is stopped per applicable lockout/tagout procedures. Inspect the pocket seating surface for chips or debris before placing the shim. Do not overtighten the insert clamping screw until the shim is confirmed fully seated in the pocket.
