Shim BAX-VB16 for Turning Tools

The BAX-VB16 is a precisely manufactured shim that serves as an essential accessory in modern tool holders. It forms a highly resistant base for indexable inserts of sizes VBMT, VBGT, and VBGW 16..., safely absorbing the cutting forces generated during machining. By providing a form-fitting support surface, this component contributes significantly to stabilizing the machining process, prevents micro-movements of the cutting edge, and reliably protects the actual tool holder from plastic deformation or premature wear.
