Precision Brand 16795 Steel Shim Stock Roll 0.007 in Thick

Product Description

The PRECISION BRAND 16795 is a steel shim stock roll used to fill gaps, align machinery components, and establish precise clearances in mechanical assemblies. At 0.007 inches thick, 6 inches wide, and 180 inches long, this roll provides generous material for multiple cuts across a wide range of shimming tasks. The continuous roll format allows technicians to cut custom lengths on the job rather than being limited to precut shims. Steel construction delivers the rigidity and compressive strength needed in demanding trade and industrial applications where dimensional accuracy is critical.

This shim stock roll is suited for use in HVAC equipment alignment, pump and motor base leveling, conveyor and machinery setup, and general mechanical fabrication. Machinists, millwrights, HVAC technicians, and maintenance professionals use roll shim stock when precise gap control is required during installation or service. The 6-inch width accommodates wider bearing surfaces and flanges, while the 180-inch length reduces the need for mid-job restocking on larger projects.

Key Features

• 0.007-inch thickness for fine-tolerance gap filling and alignment work
• 180-inch roll length provides ample material for multiple cuts
• 6-inch width accommodates broad bearing surfaces and flanges
• Steel construction offers high compressive strength and dimensional stability
• Roll format allows field cutting to any required length

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose steel shim stock roll for use in mechanical alignment, machinery leveling, and gap-setting applications across HVAC, plumbing, and industrial maintenance trades.

Installation Notes

Shim stock is typically installed by millwrights, HVAC technicians, or maintenance mechanics during equipment alignment or leveling procedures. De-energize and lock out all equipment before inserting shims near rotating or pressurized components. Use aviation snips, metal shears, or a utility knife with a straightedge to cut the roll to the required length and shape. Edges after cutting may be sharp — handle with appropriate gloves and deburr as needed before final installation.
