General Purpose Washers

Your go-to metal washer for every screw size. Washers take the pressure off nuts and screws to protect mounting surfaces.

Brass

Softer than most metals, brass washers won't damage other fastening components.

Brass—With a warm, polished look, these washers are often chosen for their appearance. Similar to 18-8 stainless steel, brass is corrosion resistant enough to stand up to wet environments.

Nickel-Plated Brass—The nickel plating offers better corrosion resistance than plain brass to stand up to solvents, salt water, and chemicals. The plating can wear off over time, so these washers are not recommended for applications that experience a lot of friction or wear.

Shims

With thickness tolerances as fine as a strand of hair, these shims precisely align, space, and level components on shafts, arbors, 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.

Brass—With a warm, polished look, these shims are often chosen for their appearance. Similar to 18-8 stainless steel, brass is corrosion resistant enough to stand up to wet environments.

Peel-Away Multilayer Shims

Image of Product. Front orientation. Shims. Peel Away, Round, Multilayer, Sold Individually.

Fine-tune thickness without worrying about stacking multiple shims. These shims are made of metal layers bonded with adhesive—peel off the layers with a utility knife until you reach your desired thickness. To make peeling easier, warm the shims to soften the adhesive. With thickness tolerances as fine as a strand of hair, all of these shims precisely align, space, and level components on shafts, arbors, and machinery.

Brass—With a warm, polished look, these shims are often chosen for their appearance. Similar to 18-8 stainless steel, brass is corrosion resistant enough to stand up to wet environments.

If you need a unique shim shape or size, we’ll precision cut it for you. With thickness tolerances as fine as a strand of hair, these shims precisely align, space, and level components on shafts, arbors, and machinery.

Send your dimensioned DWG, DXF, IGES, or STEP file to sales@mcmaster.com. Please leave at least _1/8" wall between shim edge and holes. Minimum hole size is _1/8". Shims should be no smaller than 1" × 1" square or 1" OD. Maximum shim dimension is the largest overall length, width, or diameter of your custom shim.

Brass—With a warm, polished look, these shims are often chosen for their appearance. Similar to 18-8 stainless steel, brass is corrosion resistant enough to stand up to wet environments.

Material Certificate—Shims include a report with a traceable lot number.
