Shim

Manufacturer part: 11885N421

For unique shim shapes or sizes, send a dimensioned STEP or DXF file to the approved vendor support team and we’ll precision cut your shim. Shims are made of layers of metal bonded with adhesive; remove layers with a utility knife until you get the thickness you need. To make the layers easier to pull apart, gently heat the shim to soften the adhesive. Shims include a material certificate with traceable lot number and test report. Please leave at least 1/8" wall between shim edge and holes. Minimum hole size is 1/8". Shims should be no smaller than 1" × 1" square or 1" OD. Maximum shim dimension is the largest overall length, width, or diameter of your custom shim.For accurate leveling, choose materials such as steel or stainless steel, which are hard enough to resist scratching and deforming. Softer shims, like brass or aluminum, can be used as wear plates between components that rub together, preventing damage to equipment.Carbon steel shims have excellent strength and can be welded, but aren't as corrosion resistant as other shims.
