Industrial
SHIMS
PRODUCT
Industrial shims are thin, precise pieces of metal, plastic, or composite material inserted between two surfaces to fill gaps, level components, adjust spacing, or align machines. Simply put, they bridge the gap between ideal engineering dimensions and real-world installation imperfections.
USEFUL HUNKS OF METAL
To the untrained person, a shim looks like a random chunk of metal. However, for the welder or contractor making an engineering drawing into a reality, a shim can be the difference between getting the job done or having to take the whole project back to the drawing board.
SHIMS COME IN A VARIETY OF SIZES, DEPTHS and MATERIALS
VARIETY OF SHIMS
Standard industrial shims typically come in iron or stainless steel in a standard array of sizes and thickness. We carry many of the standard sizes, depths in carbon steel and stainless steel. However, we can create custom steel or stainless steel shims to almost any size requested. Contact us today if you need shims for your project.
