Product Description
The CMT 541.516.00 Spacer is a precision-ground assembly component designed to fine-tune tool positioning and achieve exact stacking widths on cutter head systems and spindle tooling setups. With an outer diameter of 14mm, a bore diameter of 8mm, and an ultra-thin plate thickness of just 0.3mm, this spacer delivers the kind of dimensional accuracy that machining and woodworking assembly operations demand. Whether you are aligning cutters on a spindle or managing stack height in a cutter head configuration, this slim, purpose-built shim gives you reliable control over tool placement without guesswork.
Key Features
- Outer diameter of 14mm with an 8mm bore - fits precisely over standard 8mm spindle bores while the 14mm outer edge provides a stable seating surface, keeping your tooling centered and secure during assembly.
- Ultra-thin 0.3mm plate thickness - allows for fine incremental adjustments to tool position on a spindle, so you can achieve exact cutter spacing or stack width without overshooting your target dimension.
- Designed specifically for assembly use - serves as a reliable spacer component when assembling cutter heads, bore reducer setups, or other tooling configurations that require controlled gaps between components.
Why This Product
- When fractions of a millimeter matter in a cutter head stack, the 0.3mm plate thickness gives you a precise, repeatable increment to work with - no improvising with makeshift shims or risking inaccurate tool positioning.
- The matching 8mm bore and 14mm outer diameter make this spacer a purpose-fit component for CMT tooling systems, reducing the chance of misalignment or unwanted play in the assembly.
- At just 0.3mm thick, this spacer adds virtually no bulk to the assembly while still providing the exact clearance or offset your tooling configuration requires - ideal when working with tight stack tolerances.
- As an active CMT product with model number 541.516.00, this is a current, supported component - not a discontinued part - so it integrates reliably into ongoing cutter head assembly and maintenance workflows.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the exact dimensions of this spacer?
This spacer has an outer diameter of 14mm, a bore diameter of 8mm, and a plate thickness of 0.3mm. These dimensions are taken directly from CMT product data for model 541.516.00.
What is this spacer used for?
This component is designed for assembly use - specifically for adjusting tool position on a spindle and for stacking cutters to a desired width within cutter head and tooling configurations.
Will this spacer fit an 8mm bore spindle?
Yes. The bore diameter of this spacer is 8mm, so it is intended to fit over an 8mm spindle or arbor. The 14mm outer diameter provides the seating surface against adjacent tooling components in the stack.
Can multiple spacers be stacked together to achieve a larger offset?
Because each spacer is 0.3mm thick, multiple units can be combined in a stack to build up the total spacing increment needed for your cutter head assembly. This gives you flexible, incremental control over tool positioning in 0.3mm steps.
