Precision Brand 16910 Steel Shim Stock 0.025 in 18x6 in 10 Pc

Product Description

The PRECISION BRAND 16910 is a flat shim stock sheet made from 1008/1010 low carbon steel, used to fill gaps, set clearances, and align components during mechanical assembly and maintenance work. Each sheet measures 0.025 inches thick, 18 inches long, and 6 inches wide, giving technicians and machinists a workable blank that can be cut to size with snips or a shear. The package contains 10 sheets. Low carbon steel offers good formability and consistent gauge tolerance, making it a reliable choice when precise gap control is required in metalworking, HVAC equipment mounting, pump alignment, and general industrial maintenance applications.

Shim stock sheets are used across a wide range of trade and industrial settings, including HVAC equipment installation, mechanical equipment alignment, pump and motor base leveling, and fabrication work where tight tolerances are needed. The 18 inch by 6 inch format is well suited to bench work and field service jobs where technicians need to cut custom shim pieces on site. The 0.025 inch gauge is a commonly specified thickness for moderate gap filling and load-bearing alignment tasks in both residential and light commercial mechanical systems.

Key Features

• 1008/1010 low carbon steel construction for consistent gauge and good formability
• 0.025 inch thickness for moderate gap filling and alignment applications
• 18 inch x 6 inch sheet size provides a generous blank for cutting custom shim profiles
• Package includes 10 sheets for job-site flexibility and stock
• Flat sheet format is compatible with standard snips, shears, and hand tools

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose low carbon steel shim stock sheet for mechanical alignment, gap setting, and leveling tasks in HVAC, industrial, and trade maintenance applications.

Installation Notes

Shim stock is typically installed by HVAC technicians, pipefitters, millwrights, and general maintenance mechanics. Before shimming rotating or pressurized equipment, de-energize the equipment and follow applicable lockout/tagout procedures. Use appropriate metal-cutting snips or a shear to cut sheets to the required profile. Edges may be sharp after cutting — deburr as needed before handling or final installation.
