Precision Brand 23220 Shim Stock 0.015 in Spring Steel

Product Description

The PRECISION BRAND 23220 is a blue tempered spring steel shim stock sheet used for precise dimensional adjustment, alignment, and gap-filling in mechanical assemblies. At 0.015 inches thick, 25 inches long, and 6 inches wide, this sheet gives machinists and maintenance technicians enough material to cut custom shims for a wide range of industrial and mechanical applications. Blue tempered spring steel provides consistent hardness, flatness, and a smooth surface finish that holds tight tolerances. This package contains 2 pieces of shim stock, making it suitable for jobs that require matched or backup shims.

This shim stock is used in industrial maintenance, machine tool setup, equipment alignment, and precision fabrication work. It is commonly used by millwrights, machinists, tool and die makers, and maintenance technicians who need reliable shimming material that can be scribed, cut with snips, or sheared to shape on the job. Applications include bearing housing alignment, base plate leveling, fixture building, and clearance adjustment in mechanical equipment across general manufacturing and plant maintenance environments.

Installation Notes

Shim stock should be cut using metal snips, shears, or a bandsaw appropriate for sheet steel. De-burr all cut edges before installation to prevent injury and ensure proper seating. Power down and lock out all equipment before inserting or adjusting shims in any mechanical assembly. Follow applicable facility safety and maintenance procedures when working around machinery.
