This shim kit is a set of thin, flat stainless steel sheets designed to enable precise gap adjustment and alignment in mechanical assemblies. Supplied as a multi-sheet pack, it is intended for use in industrial and electrical settings where small, consistent thickness increments aid component positioning and load distribution.
Features and Benefits
- Corrosion-resistant stainless material extends service life
Consistent thickness of 0.7mm ensures repeatable shimming
Pack includes ten individual sheets for incremental adjustment
Square sheet form supports easy trimming and fitting
Compatible with precision alignment and bearing spacing tasks
Applications
- Suitable for fine-tuning bearing clearances in rotating equipment
Ideal for setting baseplate alignment in automation frames
Used for spacing in electrical enclosures and panels
Can be used for precision stacking in electronics assembly
What is the sheet count and how does it affect adjustment granularity?
The pack contains ten discrete sheets, allowing users to stack or remove individual layers to achieve stepped changes in separation without cutting multiple pieces.
Which material properties aid use in industrial environments?
The stainless composition offers resistance to many ambient contaminants and maintains dimensional stability under typical workshop conditions.
What sheet geometry facilitates installation and modification?
Each sheet is produced as a square plate, simplifying positioning and enabling straightforward trimming to required profiles with standard metalworking tools.
How does the kit integrate into bearing set-up procedures?
Sheets can be introduced between mating surfaces to incrementally modify axial or radial clearance during assembly and adjustment operations.
Selection guidance
- Review the manufacturer specifications for compatibility with your equipment.
- Confirm the required dimensions and fitting arrangement before ordering.
- Check the intended operating conditions against the product documentation.
