Product Description
The CMT 541.550.00 Spacer is a precision-ground assembly component designed to fine-tune tool positioning on spindles and cutter head systems. With an outer diameter of 9mm, a bore diameter of 3.25mm, and a plate thickness of 1.6mm, this compact spacer delivers the exact spacing needed to stack cutters, align tooling, or adjust cutting depth with confidence. Whether you are building up a cutter head assembly or dialing in the precise lateral position of a rotating tool, this spacer provides the tight tolerances that accurate woodworking and machining demand.
Key Features
- Outer Diameter: 9mm - sized to seat correctly within compatible CMT cutter head systems, ensuring a stable, centered fit that eliminates wobble during operation.
- Bore Diameter: 3.25mm - the precision bore accepts the appropriate spindle or arbor shaft, keeping the spacer firmly located and concentric during use.
- Plate Thickness: 1.6mm - a specific, repeatable thickness that lets you achieve exact tool spacing increments when stacking multiple spacers or positioning cutters to a desired width.
- Precision-ground construction - tight dimensional tolerances mean your tooling sits exactly where you intend it, reducing vibration and improving cut quality.
- Designed for assembly use - functions as a dedicated spacer component within cutter head and tooling assemblies, making it straightforward to configure multi-piece cutting setups.
Why This Product
- When fractions of a millimeter matter in a cutter head assembly, a spacer with a confirmed 1.6mm plate thickness gives you a reliable, repeatable reference point for stacking tools to an exact combined width.
- The 3.25mm bore diameter and 9mm outer diameter work together to keep the spacer properly centered on the arbor, reducing the risk of runout that could affect cut accuracy or tool life.
- Because this spacer is a dedicated assembly component rather than a makeshift shim, it integrates cleanly into CMT tooling configurations and holds its dimensions under the demands of regular use.
- Its compact 1.6mm thickness makes it a practical building block for fine-tuning spindle setups where larger adjustments are not needed - giving you precise control without adding unnecessary bulk to the assembly.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the plate thickness of the CMT 541.550.00 spacer?
The plate thickness is 1.6mm. This specific dimension makes it useful for building up precise spacing increments in a cutter head or spindle assembly, giving you repeatable and accurate tool positioning.
What are the bore and outer diameter dimensions of this spacer?
The bore diameter is 3.25mm and the outer diameter is 9mm. Together these dimensions determine compatibility with the arbor shaft and the surrounding tooling components in your assembly.
What is this spacer used for?
This spacer is designed for use in cutter head and tooling assemblies. Its primary purpose is to adjust tool position on a spindle or to stack cutters and other components to a desired combined width with precision.
Can multiple spacers be used together in a single assembly?
Yes. Because the plate thickness is a fixed, precision-ground 1.6mm, multiple spacers of this type can be combined to build up spacing in predictable increments, allowing you to fine-tune the lateral position of cutters within a cutter head system.
