Shim stock is used to fill gaps, align components, and achieve precise tolerances during equipment installation, maintenance, and repair. This sheet measures 0.02 inches thick, 12 inches long, and 8 inches wide, giving technicians a workable blank that can be cut to the exact profile needed on the job. At 2.91 pounds per pack, the material carries enough mass to suggest a full, solid sheet with consistent gauge throughout. HVAC techs, millwrights, pipefitters, and general maintenance professionals reach for flat sheet shim stock when aligning fan assemblies, leveling equipment bases, or shimming flanges to spec.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFlat sheet shim stock in steel is appropriate for a wide range of industrial and mechanical service applications. Common uses include shimming compressor mounts, aligning pump bases, correcting equipment level on uneven pads, and filling clearance gaps in mechanical assemblies. The 12 x 8 inch sheet size provides enough material to yield multiple shims from a single piece, reducing waste on jobs that require several identical shims cut to a custom shape. This item ships in a package quantity of 5 sheets, making it suitable for shops that turn through shim stock regularly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlat sheet form allows field-cutting to any custom shim profile\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.02 inch nominal thickness for precision gap-filling and alignment work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteel construction resists deformation under compressive load\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e12 x 8 inch sheet size yields multiple shims per piece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePack of 5 sheets reduces per-unit cost for high-volume service shops\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose flat sheet shim stock suitable for mechanical alignment and gap-filling applications across HVAC, plumbing, and industrial maintenance work wherever a 0.02 inch steel shim is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eShim stock is typically installed by millwrights, HVAC technicians, or general maintenance mechanics using tin snips, aviation shears, or a metal punch to cut the sheet to the required shape. De-energize and lock out any equipment before placing shims under or around moving components. Verify that the finished shim stack does not introduce misalignment in adjacent fasteners or mating surfaces. Follow applicable equipment manufacturer torque specifications when re-fastening hardware after shimming.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.02 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Flat Sheet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 sheets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.91 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 16952\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRECISION BRAND","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51539980484914,"sku":"16952","price":38.71,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/bc646417d354a60a0ff395244921157a_f71257c6-d80a-4367-995e-5d76f161c7a7.jpg?v=1785845290","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/precision-brand-16952-steel-flat-sheet-shim-stock-5-pack","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
