When you’re replacing worn shims or setting up a new tool, this part provides a simple, reliable way to maintain accuracy and speed up setup and maintenance.

  • Precise MT2204 compatibility: Machined for a snug, precise fit with MT2204 turning tool holders and boring bars to maintain tool alignment and reduce runout.
