What do you mean by a complete index entry? It doesn't seem to have to
match
the complete second level portion of the index entry, so I'm not clear.

No matter what I do, space, no space before the [, these still won't
sort
right under the stud and rollers first level entries.

Linda,

Perhaps we are not understanding the issue that you really want to
solve.

Can you provide some of the entries surrounding the areas in which you
are having a problem?
It seems to me that you are tyring to get these index entries into more
than one location.

As a guess, are you wanting something like the following?

70 mm stud
   roller locations
   roller maintenance
   standardized something...
90 mm stud
   roller locations
   roller maintenance
   standardized something...
100 mm stud
   roller locations
   roller maintenance
   standardized something...

...

roller locations
   70 mm stud
   90 mm stud
   100 mm stud

...

studs
   70 mm roller locations
   90 mm roller locations
   100 mm roller locations
   aluminum
   copper
   steel
