Nelson Wood Shims CSH12/42/12/24 Wood Shims 42 Pack

Product Description

The NELSON WOOD SHIMS CSH12/42/12/24 is a contractor-grade wood shim bundle designed for professional installation work. Each bundle contains 42 shims, each measuring 12 inches in length. The shims are made from a proprietary processed wood that is engineered to snap cleanly and resist splitting under load. This clean-snap characteristic reduces material waste on the job site and speeds up installation. Contractors, cabinet makers, and door and window installers are the primary users of this bundle. The bundle ships as a single unit and is sold with a minimum order quantity of 12 bundles.

These shims are suited for residential and light commercial applications where precise leveling, plumbing, and shimming are required. Common install scenarios include door and window frame installation, cabinet hanging, structural shimming during rough framing, and millwork fitting. The 12-inch length provides enough surface contact for a stable, even bearing surface across most standard framing and finish applications. The processed wood construction performs consistently across temperature and humidity ranges typical of interior construction environments.

Installation Notes

These shims are installed by carpenters, general contractors, and finish tradespeople during framing, door and window rough-in, and cabinet setting. No power tools are required for snapping shims to length — controlled hand pressure at the score point is the standard method. Follow local building codes for shimming requirements at door and window rough openings. Do not use these shims in direct contact with concrete, masonry, or other moisture-saturated substrates without appropriate moisture barrier protection.
