Easy-to-Form Wear-Resistant 1095 Spring Steel Sheets

Yield Strength: 60,000 psi
Hardness: Rockwell B90 (Medium)
Heat Treatable: Yes
Max. Hardness After Heat Treatment: Not Rated

These sheets have a softened temper, which is also known as annealed, so they can be easily formed into shape and then heat treated for spring properties. 1095 spring steel has a higher carbon content than 1075 spring steel for better wear resistance. It is often fabricated into parts that will be used under continual stress, such as spring clips and washers.

1075 Spring Steel Strips

Yield Strength: Not Rated
Hardness: Rockwell C45 (Hard)

1075 spring steel is easier to bend than 1095, but it has less bounce-back after heat treating. It is often used for springs and shims. This material is also known as scaleless steel.

Easy-To-Form Multipurpose 1050 Spring Steel Sheets

Yield Strength: 60,000 psi
Hardness: Rockwell B92
Heat Treatable: Yes
Maximum Hardness After Heat Treatment: Rockwell C58
Specifications Met: ASTM A682

Containing more carbon than low-carbon steel—but less than 1095 spring steel—1050 spring steel is easily formed into parts such as washers, brackets, and springs before being hardened for use. It resists stress, so it won’t snap when formed or twisted. Because it has a lower carbon content than 1095 spring steel, it’s not as wear resistant.

Ultra-Formable 260 Brass Sheets and Strips

The most formable brass we offer, 260 offers better weldability than 300 series brass but it’s not as machinable. Sometimes called cartridge brass, it's commonly used for ammunition casings, radiator components, and decorative door hardware.

Shim Stock

Cut it into custom shapes to fit your application.

Spring steel shim stock is comparable in strength to carbon steel shim stock, but is harder and holds its shape better. It isn't as corrosion resistant as other shims.

Peel-Away Layered Shim Stock

Cut this shim stock it into custom shapes to fit your application. Stock is made of layers of material 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.

For accurate leveling, choose materials such as steel or stainless steel, which are hard enough to resist scratching and deforming. Softer shims, like copper or aluminum, can be used as wear plates between components that rub together, preventing damage to equipment.

18-8 stainless steel shim stock is more corrosion resistant than carbon steel shim stock.

Carbon steel shim stock has excellent strength and can be welded, but isn't as corrosion resistant as other shim stock.

Aluminum shim stock is lightweight and nonmagnetic. It has good corrosion resistance.

Brass shim stock is corrosion resistant and nonmagnetic.

Polyimide plastic shim stock is corrosion resistant, electrically insulating, and holds its shape at extreme temperatures. It's easier to peel apart than metal shim stock. Stock includes a material certificate with traceable lot number and test report.
