Color-Coded Shim Stock

This shim stock is color-coded by thickness for easy identification. Cut it into custom shapes to fit your application. Shim stock is corrosion resistant. Sheets come flat packed.

Plastic shim stock works well in light duty applications. It's easier to cut than aluminum stock.

Shim Stock

Cut it into custom shapes to fit your application. Sheets come flat packed.

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.

PTFE plastic shim stock is slippery, so it can be used to reduce friction between parts. It also has excellent chemical resistance.

Waterproof Tarps

Keep covered items dry with these UV-resistant tarps.

Tarps with aluminum grommets have heat-sealed seams to prevent tearing, rope-reinforced hems, and will stay flexible in low temperatures.
