Product Description
CMT 541.500.00 Spacer - 8/14.7 x 3mm by CMT is a precision-ground assembly spacer designed for accurate tool positioning on spindles and cutter head assemblies. With an outer diameter of 14.7mm, a bore diameter of 8mm, and a plate thickness of 3mm, this compact spacer gives woodworkers and machinists the fine control they need when stacking cutters, adjusting tool depth, or setting precise working widths on router tables and shaper setups.
Key Features
- Outer Diameter of 14.7mm - sized to fit correctly within compatible CMT cutter head systems, ensuring stable, centered tool support without unwanted movement.
- Bore Diameter of 8mm - fits an 8mm spindle or arbor precisely, eliminating slop or lateral shift that could compromise cut quality or tool alignment.
- Plate Thickness of 3mm - a consistent, measured thickness that allows predictable, repeatable adjustments when positioning cutters or setting tool stack height on a spindle.
- Precision spacer for assembly use - purpose-built as an assembly component, this spacer helps maintain correct tool spacing and positioning to protect both the tooling and the workpiece.
Why This Product
- The fixed 3mm plate thickness gives you a known, reliable increment for adjusting cutter position along a spindle - ideal when exact spacing between tooling components matters for the finished cut.
- The 8mm bore is machined to work with 8mm arbors, so the spacer seats firmly without rocking or shifting, keeping your tooling stack stable during operation.
- At 14.7mm outer diameter, this spacer is compact enough to fit within the cutter head assembly without interfering with surrounding components or restricting the cutting profile.
- Designed as a dedicated assembly spacer by CMT, it integrates directly into CMT tooling systems - giving you a purpose-matched component rather than an improvised shim or adapter.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the exact dimensions of this spacer?
This spacer has an outer diameter of 14.7mm, a bore diameter of 8mm, and a plate thickness of 3mm. These three dimensions define how it fits on a spindle and how much spacing it adds to a tooling stack.
What spindle or arbor size does this spacer fit?
The bore diameter is 8mm, so this spacer is designed for use on 8mm spindles or arbors. Make sure your cutter head or tooling assembly uses an 8mm bore before ordering.
What is this spacer used for?
This is a precision spacer for assembly use - it is placed between cutters, cutter heads, or other tooling components on a spindle to adjust their position, set spacing, or achieve a desired working width on a router table or shaper setup.
Can this spacer be used with multiple CMT cutter head configurations?
Yes - as a dedicated assembly spacer with an 8mm bore and 14.7mm outer diameter, it is suited for use in CMT cutter head assemblies and similar tooling systems that share compatible bore and diameter dimensions. Always verify the bore and outer diameter match your specific assembly before use.
