    Shim Stock

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Shim Stock. Sold Individually.
    Cut into custom shapes to create shims that suit your needs. With thickness tolerances as fine as a strand of hair, the shims will precisely align, space, and level components on dies, presses, and machinery.
    You can stack multiple shims to achieve your exact thickness, but stacking more than four may cause them to shift. Remember, fewer shims are better, so a couple of thicker shims are more stable than a bunch of thin shims.
    Sheets—Shim stock comes in sheets that are flat packed.
    Copper—A good conductor of heat, it’s often used to install heat sinks. As our softest metal, it prevents component damage but may not retain its shape as well as other metals.
