At 0.005 inches thick, 6 inches wide, and 180 inches long, this roll provides ample material for cutting custom shims to fit a wide range of job requirements. The low-gauge thickness makes it well suited for precision shimming tasks where tight tolerances are critical. Machinists, millwrights, and maintenance technicians are the primary installers. The roll format reduces waste by allowing the user to cut only what is needed for each application.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis shim stock roll is commonly used in maintenance, repair, and manufacturing environments to level machinery bases, align shaft couplings, adjust bearing housings, and set mechanical clearances. The 6-inch width and 180-inch length give tradespeople flexibility to produce multiple shims from a single roll without ordering additional material. It is appropriate for both light industrial and heavy-duty mechanical alignment tasks where a consistent, low-profile steel shim is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.005-inch thickness for fine-tolerance gap filling and precision alignment work\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e6-inch width provides versatility for cutting shims to a variety of custom dimensions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e180-inch roll length yields substantial usable material from a single unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteel construction offers durability and resistance to deformation under compressive load\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRoll format minimizes material waste and simplifies on-site cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose steel shim stock roll suitable for mechanical alignment, leveling, and clearance-setting tasks across a wide range of industrial and maintenance applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShim stock is typically cut using aviation snips, a shim cutter, or a sharp utility knife against a straight edge. Always de-energize and lock out equipment before shimming rotating or powered machinery. Cut edges may be sharp; wear appropriate hand protection during handling and installation. Follow applicable machinery manufacturer guidelines and applicable codes for alignment tolerances when used in precision mechanical assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Roll\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.005 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 180 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.65 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31231400\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: PRECISION BRAND\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 16785\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRECISION BRAND","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51542742794546,"sku":"16785","price":38.13,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/b3da5618a295ae858db502c80eb2609c.jpg?v=1785905954","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/precision-brand-16785-steel-shim-stock-roll-0-005-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
