About Copper, Brass, and Bronze
More
Self-Lubricating Wear Plates
Impact causes these porous bronze plates to release a thin layer of oil on the surface to minimize friction. Often found on conveyor systems and fabricating machinery, use these plates where friction between two parts or materials is wearing down equipment to extend equipment life. They can be used outdoors.
For technical drawings and 3-D models, click on a part number.
Door Kick Plates
Also known as door plates, armor plates, and mop plates, kick plates protect the base of a door from damage caused by foot traffic and equipment. Choose a kick plate with a width that is 2” narrower than the overall width of the door to prevent interference with the door’s opening and closing. All can be used outdoors.
Screw-in plates mount with fasteners.
Brass and bronze plates provide a more decorative finish than other plates. They have good corrosion resistance and are nonmagnetic.

Bronze Wool Pads
Good for use on bronze and hard woods, this wool won't leave behind small fibers that cause rust.
Coarse—Aggressively remove rust and dirt.
Medium—Remove old finishes and rust; prepare surfaces for painting.
Fine—Polish and buff.

Shim Stock
Cut it into custom shapes to fit your application.
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. Metal shims include a material certificate with traceable lot number and test report.
Brass, copper, and bronze shim stock is corrosion resistant and nonmagnetic. Bronze shim stock is stronger than copper or brass shim stock.
