Shim Facts
-
A shim is like a flat washer that is
used for aligning materials and is mostly found in tooling
applications for the most precise control.
-
Shims can provide a buffer between
materials (especially rotating), so that the machine does not break or
suffer due to excessive wear-and-tear.
-
Shims can be used to fill a space in
an assembly.
-
Shims are used to adjust the fit of
various parts in an assembly.
The Right Shim for You
Like with most fasteners, there are
standard shims and shim sizes and there are custom design options. For
those times you need an exotic or specialty shim, come to Liberty
Fastener and let us get the part you need made right.
If you already have the dimensions and
you just need the part, we'll get to work right away to provide you with
your custom shims.
Applications
Shims can be found in most machining and
tooling industries, but here are a few other places you might need to
use them:
Colored Shim
Flat stock allows shims to be
cut and created to suit individual applications. Color coding makes
identifying the thickness of the shim stock easy and quicker to use and
install.
Flat Shim
Shim stock works to solve
alignment and leveling problems within machinery. Flat shim stock is
easy to use and versatile. Simply cut with scissors into whatever shape
you require in your application.
Laminated Shim
Pressure and adhesive is used to
bond metal shim together to create a rigid “one piece” that can function
as one shim or layers can be peeled away to produce a shim of required
thickness.
Rolled shim
Shim stock works to solve
alignment and leveling problems within machinery. Rolled shim is simple
to use and available in plenty of types that are suited for a variety of
applications.
