Highly Moisture-Resistant HDPE Film

The high-density construction translates into a durable film that’s more chemical and water resistant than LDPE film. This woven film is also tear and puncture resistant, so it’s often used for tarps and machine covers.

Shim Stock

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.

Ultra-Chemical-Resistant PTFE—The most chemical-resistant shim stock we offer, it stands up to the widest range of harsh acids, bases, solvents, and corrosive cleaners, even at temperatures up to 500° F. It also won't mar delicate surfaces.

Plastic—Softer than metal, it won't mar delicate surfaces and it will never rust.
