ABSTRACT:
An indexable cutting tool wherein wear-resistant inserts are removably supported within a recess in a tool holder which has walls generally conforming to the adjacent surfaces of the insert. Interposed between the adjacent surfaces of the insert and the walls of the recess is a spacing shim with at least two portions which separate the insert from the walls of the recess. The portions which separate the inserts from the walls of the recess are connected by a weakened portion which may be scored or reduced in dimenson. The shim, as manufactured, is flat with the weakened portions connecting the portions adapted to separate the insert from the recess walls being provided to permit the shim to conform to a variety of insert configurations. The portions of the shim which separate the surfaces of the insert from the walls of the recess have a thickness which is equal to the amount of material removed from the surfaces of the insert in one or more resharpening operations.
