Heavy Duty Tapered Shims
Ridges keep these aluminum shims from sliding apart when stacked. Designed for aligning shafts and axles, they support heavier loads than plastic tapered shims. For extra stability, screw through the center mounting hole. Also known as pinion shims.

Breakaway Tapered Shims
Easily snap off any excess to get the length you need. Use these shims to align cabinets, doors, and windows, or for other rough leveling.
Dimpled shims have breaks every ½ inch. They resist splitting when nailed or screwed, so they’re best to use when hammering is needed.
Lined shims are marked every 1/8 inch for clean, precise breaks.

Metric Leveling Washers for I-Beams
Commonly called beveled washers, these metric washers are tapered to fit inside an I-beam's flange to provide a parallel bearing surface.
Zinc-plated steel washers are coated for corrosion resistance in wet environments.
Hot-dipped galvanized steel washers are ten times more corrosion resistant than zinc-plated washers.
18-8 stainless steel washers are the most corrosion-resistant option.

Sanitary Threaded Standoffs
Mount components onto food processing lines, walls, and sanitary equipment while leaving space to clean in between. These standoffs have a smooth finish and rounded edges to eliminate pits or crevices where bacteria could grow. Made of 304 stainless steel, they won’t corrode from frequent washdowns with harsh cleaners and sanitizers. A rubber seal stops water and contaminants from entering the body of these standoffs. They are FDA compliant for safe contact with food.
Tapered standoffs are shaped so there are no crevices between their tapered end and small, mounted objects, such as pipe. They also have a lower mounting profile than standard standoffs.
