Precision Brand 23290 Spring Steel Shim Stock 6 Piece

Product Description

The PRECISION BRAND 23290 is a six-piece spring steel shim stock sheet assortment covering a thickness range of 0.005 to 0.032 inches. Each sheet measures 12 inches long by 6 inches wide, giving technicians and machinists a workable surface for custom-cut shimming tasks. Spring steel provides consistent temper and resists deformation under load, making it well suited for precision alignment, leveling, and gap-filling applications in mechanical and industrial service work. The assortment format lets a technician select the correct thickness on the job without carrying a full roll inventory.

This assortment is used wherever precise gap control or component alignment is required. Common applications include machinery alignment, bearing fits, conveyor and drive system adjustments, HVAC equipment leveling, and light fabrication work. The sheets can be cut with tin snips or a shear to fit irregular clearances. Facilities maintenance crews, millwrights, and trade mechanics working on rotating equipment or structural fits will find the range of thicknesses practical for single-visit problem-solving.

Key Features

• Six sheets per package covering 0.005 to 0.032 inch thickness range
• Spring steel construction maintains temper and resists permanent deformation under compressive load
• Each sheet is 12 inches long by 6 inches wide for flexible cut-to-fit use

• Suitable for precision alignment, leveling, and clearance adjustment across multiple trades

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose spring steel shim stock assortment for use in mechanical alignment, equipment leveling, and gap-filling tasks where controlled thickness material is required.

Installation Notes

Shim stock sheets are typically installed by millwrights, maintenance mechanics, or trade technicians during alignment or fit-up procedures. De-energize and lock out all equipment before placing shims in rotating or power-driven assemblies. Sheets can be cut with aviation snips, a bench shear, or a utility knife scored against a straight edge. Verify final clearance or alignment with a feeler gauge or dial indicator after shimming is complete.
