    Peel-Away Multilayer Shim Stock

    Image of ProductInUse. Front orientation. Shim Stock. Peel Away, Sold Individually, Multilayer.
    Fine-tune thickness without worrying about stacking multiple shims. Cut the shim stock into custom shapes that suit your needs. It's 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 created shims to soften the adhesive. With thickness tolerances as fine as a strand of hair, the shims will precisely align, space, and level components on dies, presses, and machinery.
    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.
    Carbon Steel—Best for dry areas since moisture will cause it to rust.
