Heavy Duty Tapered Shims
 |
Align heavy machinery. Originally designed for leveling leaf springs on pick-up trucks, these aluminum shims are stronger than plastic and wood shims. Wedge them under your machine’s feet until you reach the desired level—no need to stack multiple flat shims. Ridges grip surfaces to prevent these shims from sliding, while also facilitating small adjustments. To secure them in place, drive a screw through the center mounting hole.

Tapered Shims
Wedge these angled shims into gaps to quickly level cabinets, doors, and windows without stacking multiple flat shims.
Wood
 |
Made of kiln-dried wood, these smooth shims resist molding and rotting. All are hand sorted for quality but may split when nailed or screwed. Easily snap off any excess to get the length you need.
Composite
 |
More durable than traditional wood shims, these are less likely to split when nailed or screwed. They will not mold or rot. All are scored to easily snap off any excess to get the length you need.
Plastic
 |
These shims won't degrade when exposed to moisture or chemicals. They're also naturally mold and rot resistant. All are ribbed to grip surfaces and keep these shims from sliding, while also facilitating small adjustments. Trim any excess with a utility knife to get the length you need.
Flexible—These shims conform to uneven surfaces but are not as precise as rigid shims. They're also easier to trim.
Rigid—These durable shims maintain their shape, so they're more precise than flexible shims.
