Slotted Tapered Shims
The slot lets you install these rigid shims around screws. Shims are made of plastic to resist moisture and prevent rot. Use them to align cabinets, doors, and windows, or for other rough leveling.
Breakaway Tapered Shims
Easily snap off any excess to get the length you need. Use these shims to align cabinets, doors, and windows, or for other rough leveling.
Composite shims are dimpled for breaking.

Tapered Shims
Ridges keep these shims from sliding apart when stacked. Use them to align cabinets, doors, and windows, or for other rough leveling.
Shims are made of plastic to resist moisture and prevent rot. Polypropylene shims are rigid. PVC shims are flexible.

Heavy Duty Tapered Shims
Ridges keep these aluminum shims from sliding apart when stacked. Designed for aligning shafts and axles, they support heavier loads than plastic tapered shims. For extra stability, screw through the center mounting hole. Also known as pinion shims.

Metric Leveling Washers for I-Beams
Commonly called beveled washers, these are tapered to fit inside an I-beam's flange to provide a parallel bearing surface.
Zinc-plated steel washers are coated for corrosion resistance in wet environments.
Hot-dipped galvanized steel washers are ten times more corrosion resistant than zinc-plated washers.
18-8 stainless steel washers are the most corrosion-resistant option.
