Seco 75011528 Shim Screw Indexable Turning

Product Description

The SECO 75011528 is a shim screw designed for use with indexable cutting tool assemblies in turning applications. Shim screws secure the shim component within the tool pocket, keeping the insert at the correct height and angle during machining operations. This part conforms to Industry Standard 43105, which governs shim hardware geometry and thread form for indexable tooling systems. Installation is performed by machinists and toolroom technicians maintaining lathe and turning center tooling. The 75011528 is a small but critical component — proper shim retention directly affects insert seating, tool runout, and surface finish quality.

This shim screw is intended for indexable turning tool holders that use a shim beneath the cutting insert. Shims protect the tool pocket from insert damage and set the correct insert height. The 75011528 is sold individually per package, with a minimum order quantity of 5 units, making it practical to stock as a consumable spare alongside replacement inserts and shims during routine tooling maintenance.

Compatibility

Designed for use with shims in indexable turning tool holders conforming to Industry Standard 43105. Specific compatible tool holder models were not specified in the product data — verify thread form and shim screw geometry against your tool holder documentation before ordering.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a qualified machinist or toolroom technician. Before replacing a shim screw, ensure the machine is powered down, the spindle is locked, and all stored energy is dissipated. Use the correct driver or hex key for the screw head to avoid stripping. Do not overtighten — follow the tool holder manufacturer torque specification for shim screws as documented in the tool holder manual.
