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. Brass shim stock is more corrosion resistant than aluminum.

Peel-Away Layered Shim Stock
Cut this shim stock it into custom shapes to fit your application. Stock is made of layers of material bonded with adhesive; remove layers with a utility knife until you get the thickness you need. To make the layers easier to pull apart, gently heat the shim to soften the adhesive.
For accurate leveling, choose materials such as steel or stainless steel, which are hard enough to resist scratching and deforming. Softer shims, like copper or aluminum, can be used as wear plates between components that rub together, preventing damage to equipment.
18-8 stainless steel shim stock is more corrosion resistant than carbon steel shim stock.
Carbon steel shim stock has excellent strength and can be welded, but isn't as corrosion resistant as other shim stock.
Aluminum shim stock is lightweight and nonmagnetic. It has good corrosion resistance.
