The Wedge series from CMT serves as a clamping / alignment insert within tool-holder or cutting tool assemblies. Manufactured with high-precision machining and likely surface treated / hardened to resist wear, these wedges help ensure that inserts or tool parts are secured with optimal alignment and contact. They play a subtle but critical role—by filling space or applying pressure in clamp assemblies, they contribute to the overall stiffness, repeatable positioning, and performance of cutting tools. Used in high-precision and high-load machining environments, wedges help maintain tool geometry under vibration, load cycles, and thermal stresses.
