Precision Brand 16750 Steel Shim Stock Roll 0.02in X 6in X 180in

Product Description

The PRECISION BRAND 16750 is a steel shim stock roll used for precision spacing, alignment, and leveling applications in mechanical and industrial service work. The roll measures 0.02 inches thick, 6 inches wide, and 180 inches long, providing ample material for cutting custom shims to exact dimensions on the job. Steel construction gives the stock durability and dimensional stability under load. Machinists, millwrights, pipefitters, and maintenance technicians typically keep rolls like this on hand for equipment alignment, bearing fits, and gap adjustment tasks where precise tolerances are required.

This shim stock roll is suited for use in industrial maintenance, HVAC equipment alignment, pump and motor base leveling, and general mechanical fitting work. The full 180-inch length allows multiple cuts from a single roll, reducing waste and keeping material on hand for recurring service calls. The 6-inch width accommodates a wide range of shim widths without additional slitting in most applications. The stock can be cut with aviation snips, a utility knife, or sheet metal shears to the required size.

Key Features

• Steel construction provides strength and resistance to compression under load
• 0.02-inch thickness suits a range of precision spacing and alignment needs
• 180-inch roll length yields significant usable material per unit
• 6-inch width allows flexible on-site cutting to required shim dimensions
• Roll format keeps stock organized and minimizes flat-storage footprint

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose steel shim stock roll for use in mechanical alignment, leveling, and gap-fitting applications across industrial and commercial service environments.

Installation Notes

Shim stock installation is typically performed by millwrights, machinists, pipefitters, or experienced HVAC and mechanical technicians. De-energize and lock out equipment before shimming motors, pumps, or HVAC components. Use appropriate cutting tools such as aviation snips or sheet metal shears and wear cut-resistant gloves when handling cut edges. Verify final alignment with a dial indicator or laser alignment tool after shims are set.
