Looks like an arbor spacer. These guys used to make them.

Don't know if they still do. You should be able to get them from MSC.

Ask at your local bearing supply house about locking washers.

They have a milling machine washer on McMaster Carr's online catalog
http://www.mcmaster.com/ page 2841 Called steel shims with internal
tab. The only other type I have seen with the internal tab are bearing
nut washers that have the multipule external folding tabs to lock the
nut in place.

Of course, you can buy them from MSC (and other Aloris dealers),
complete with the adjusting screw and nuts. If all you need is the
washers, this can get expensive, of course.

Hmm ... perhaps Errol can get his students to make some punches
and dies for blanking them out. :-)

Enjoy,

Wait, we can do them by EDM. Oh darn, the EDM has been down for more
than four years with no $$$$ to fix it.

Sigh.

If you're actually using these for Aloris toolholders, I've
found that threaded clamp collars make a more convenient
adjustment than the double nut arrangement that comes with
the toolholders. 3/8-24 collars are $2.46/ea from McMaster
(p/n 6438K19), probably less from a bearing distributor.

Thanks to all who posted. I haven't found what I was looking for so
may go with plain flat washers or look at Ned's suggestion.

BYW I emailed McMaster Carr last night describing what I was looking
for and got an email back first thing this morning. They don't have
it but that was good response even so.

Thanks again
