At 0.005 inches thick with a 0.376-inch inside diameter and 0.557-inch outside diameter, this shim fits 3\/8-inch screw sizes and provides consistent, repeatable shimming performance. Each package contains 50 pieces. The 1095 spring steel construction delivers high hardness and resilience, making these shims suitable for applications involving cycling loads or where shim stack compression must be minimized. Millwrights, maintenance technicians, and mechanical contractors are the typical installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese round shims are used in industrial and commercial maintenance applications wherever precise gap adjustment, load leveling, or component alignment is needed around 3\/8-inch fasteners or shafts. Typical install scenarios include bearing fits, machine bases, bracket mounting, and shaft shoulder alignment. The shortening shim type is suited for reducing axial clearance in tight tolerance assemblies. The 50-piece pack supports bench stock or job-site kitting for repetitive assembly work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1095 spring steel construction for high hardness and load resilience\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eShim type: shortening, for reducing axial clearance in assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.005-inch nominal thickness with a tight tolerance of plus or minus 0.0005 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFits 3\/8-inch screw size with 0.376-inch inside diameter\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.557-inch outside diameter for broad load distribution around the fastener\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e50-piece package supports bench stock and repetitive assembly applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style precision shim for mechanical assemblies using 3\/8-inch fasteners or shoulder diameters requiring shortening-type axial adjustment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by millwrights or mechanical maintenance technicians. Power down and de-energize all equipment before disassembling fastened joints. Shims should be stacked flat and free of burrs or debris to maintain tolerance accuracy across the stack.
