At 0.031 inches thick and measuring 12 inches long by 8 inches wide, each sheet provides consistent material thickness for tight-tolerance fitting and spacing tasks. Sold in a package of 5 sheets, this shim stock is a practical bench supply for service technicians and installers who need on-hand shimming material for equipment mounting, pipe alignment, or structural leveling. The steel construction offers durability and resistance to deformation under load.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFlat sheet shim stock in this gauge and size is commonly used in residential and commercial mechanical installations. Technicians use it when mounting HVAC equipment, aligning pump bases, shimming compressor pads, or correcting minor dimensional gaps in structural and mechanical assemblies. The 12 x 8 inch sheet size allows it to be cut or trimmed to fit a wide range of applications without excessive waste. Having multiple sheets per package makes it suitable for jobs requiring repeated shimming at multiple points.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteel construction provides strength and dimensional stability under compressive loads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.031 inch thickness suits a wide range of standard shimming and spacing applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e12 x 8 inch sheet size is easy to cut or trim to fit specific clearance requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePackage of 5 sheets provides adequate supply for multi-point alignment tasks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlat sheet form allows custom shim profiles to be cut to exact dimensions on site\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose flat sheet shim stock suitable for use in mechanical, HVAC, plumbing, and industrial equipment alignment and leveling applications where 0.031 inch steel shim material is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eShim stock installation is typically performed by HVAC technicians, millwrights, plumbers, or general mechanical tradespeople during equipment mounting and alignment procedures. Always power down or de-energize equipment before shimming under or around mechanical assemblies. Steel shim sheets can be cut with tin snips or sheet metal shears to achieve the required profile. Edges after cutting may be sharp — use appropriate hand protection during handling and fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: Flat Sheet Shim Stock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.031 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\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 sheets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4.42 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: 16968\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PRECISION BRAND","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51542259728690,"sku":"16968","price":50.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/bc646417d354a60a0ff395244921157a_a1dd5258-9aec-43bc-a2d7-33b8663b6345.jpg?v=1785896630","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/precision-brand-16968-steel-flat-sheet-shim-stock","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
