    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.
    Bronze—The choice for marine environments, it won't rust or deteriorate from exposure to salt water. It offers better corrosion resistance than 316 stainless steel but isn't as strong.
    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.
    Temper Rating—Choose half hard to create shims that you’ll need to bend or shape. Opt for full hard to make stronger shims that will maintain their shape under loads.

    Copper Foil Conductive Tape

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Conductive Tape. Copper Foil Conductive Tape.
    Use this tape to modify printed circuit boards, shield components from EMI/RFI (electromagnetic interference/radio-frequency interference), and prototype wiring-board layout and design. Made of copper, it resists chemicals better than aluminum foil electrical tape. Plus, you can solder it.
    Conductive Adhesive—Conductive adhesive makes easy electrical connections—charge travels both along and through the tape. Since it’s more conductive, it’s better at shielding against EMI than tape with electrically insulating adhesive.
    Electrically Insulating Adhesive—Tape with electrically insulating adhesive is only conductive on the surface, so electrical charge won’t travel through the tape. Choose it for shielding cables without creating unwanted electrical connections.

    Copper Foil

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Copper. Copper Foil.
    Conductive and corrosion resistant, copper foil is a versatile choice for electrical and construction jobs. Solder it onto damaged circuit boards to patch them, or wrap it around cables to block signal interference. On buildings, you'll see it used for weatherproofing and even decorating.

    Shim Stock Assortments

    When you don’t know the exact shim thickness you’ll need, keep shim stock in multiple thicknesses on hand so you always have the right one. Cut this shim stock 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.

    Bronze—The choice for marine environments, it won't rust or deteriorate from exposure to salt water. It offers better corrosion resistance than 316 stainless steel but isn't as strong.
    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.

    Low-Outgassing Copper Foil Conductive Tape

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Conductive Tape. Low-Outgassing Copper Foil Conductive Tape.
    Tested to meet ASTM E595, a standard used by NASA, this tape releases almost no volatile emissions that could damage sensitive electronics, even in a vacuum. Use it to repair and prototype circuit boards and shield components from EMI/RFI. With a copper backing and conductive adhesive, it’s useful for making electrical connections—current travels both along and through the tape. Unlike aluminum tape, it can be soldered. It’s also better at resisting chemicals.

    Mesh Conductive Tape

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Conductive Tape. Mesh Conductive Tape.
    This polyester tape has a woven mesh edge that conducts electricity. Use it to shield cables and electronic components from EMI (electromagnetic interference). When wrapping objects, tape should overlap half of its width to achieve a highly effective four-ply shielding.
