    Aluminum Foil

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Aluminum. Aluminum Foil.
    Shield, insulate, and make quick repairs—aluminum foil is a jack-of-all-trades. Wrap it around pipe to hold in heat and keep out moisture, or around wire to block electromagnetic interference. To patch damaged insulation, tape it over tears and holes. You can also use it to cover surfaces while painting and processing.
    Annealed—This foil is softened until it's as flexible as possible, often called "dead soft." It conforms to complex shapes and contours, making it a good choice for sealing joints and wrapping HVAC ducts.

    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.
    18-8 Stainless Steel—The choice for wet and outdoor areas because it resists rust. However, it will corrode or pit when exposed to salt water and chemicals.
    Plastic—Softer than metal, it won't mar delicate surfaces and it will never rust.
    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.

    Platinum Foil

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Contains Inset. Platinum. Platinum Foil.
    Thin and easy to cut, use this 99.95% pure platinum foil in labs and electronics production. It won’t oxidize, won’t corrode in most environments, and has low thermal and electrical resistance. Platinum is often used to make gaskets, even in high-vacuum applications, because it’s soft enough to create a good seal when pressed between two flanges, but won’t damage the flanges so you can reuse them. It also works for high temperatures because it has a higher melting point than gold and other sealing materials.
