Precision Brand 16640 Steel Shim Stock Roll 0.025 in 1010

Product Description

The PRECISION BRAND 16640 is a roll of 1010 low carbon steel shim stock used to fill gaps, align machinery, and set precise clearances in mechanical assemblies. At 0.025 inches thick, 12 inches wide, and 120 inches long, this roll gives machinists, millwrights, and maintenance technicians a generous working supply for a wide range of shimming tasks. The 1010 low carbon steel material offers consistent thickness across the full roll length, making it reliable for applications where tight dimensional tolerances are required. The roll format allows technicians to cut custom lengths and shapes on the job without waste.

This shim stock roll is suited for industrial maintenance, machine tool alignment, conveyor and pump base leveling, bearing seat shimming, and general precision fit-up work in manufacturing and repair environments. The 120-inch length provides enough stock to handle multiple jobs from a single roll. It is appropriate for use in shops, plants, and field service applications where controlled metal thickness is needed between mating surfaces or around fitted components.

Key Features

• 1010 low carbon steel for consistent ductility and machinability
• 0.025 inch thickness for mid-range shimming applications
• 12 inch width allows cutting of wide shim blanks or multiple narrow strips
• 120 inch roll length provides ample stock for multiple uses
• Roll format enables on-site cutting to any required length or shape

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose shim stock roll for use in mechanical alignment, machine assembly, and maintenance applications requiring 0.025 inch steel shim material.

Installation Notes

Cut to required dimensions using aviation snips, a shim cutter, or metal shears before installation. Deburr all cut edges to prevent damage to mating surfaces or injury during handling. Ensure the shimmed assembly is fully de-energized and depressurized before disassembly and shimming work begins. Follow applicable facility safety and machinery lockout/tagout procedures throughout the process.
