Adhesive-Back Shim Stock
A durable acrylic adhesive keeps this shim stock from sliding out of place. Cut it into custom shapes to fit your application. Shim stock is corrosion resistant. It includes a material certificate with traceable lot number and test report.
316 stainless steel shim stock has high corrosion resistance. For precise leveling, 18-8 stainless steel shim stock is hard enough to resist scratching and deforming.
Aluminum and brass shim stock are softer than stainless steel, so they can be used as wear plates between components that rub together, preventing damage to equipment. Aluminum shim stock is lighter than brass. Brass shim stock is more corrosion resistant than aluminum.
Copper shim stock is a good conductor of heat and electricity, so it’s often used when installing heat sinks.
