Precision Brand 26919 Round Shim 0.015in Thick 0.595in Id 0.749in Od

Product Description

The PRECISION BRAND 26919 is a round spring steel shim designed for lengthening applications in mechanical assemblies. This shim provides precise dimensional control between mating components, compensating for gaps, misalignment, or tolerance stack-up in shafts, bearings, housings, and similar hardware. At 0.015 inches thick with a 0.595-inch inside diameter and 0.749-inch outside diameter, it fits tightly around small shafts and fasteners where close tolerance is required. Spring steel construction gives the part resilience and resistance to compression set under load. Each package contains 50 pieces. HVAC technicians, millwrights, plumbers, and general mechanical trades use shims like these during equipment installation and realignment work.

This shim is suited for residential and light commercial applications wherever precise axial or radial spacing is needed. Common use cases include fan and blower shaft assemblies, pump bearing housings, valve stem clearances, and bracket alignment in mechanical equipment. The 0.595-inch inside diameter accommodates small-diameter shafts and fasteners, making this part practical for tight-clearance work inside HVAC units, pumps, and piping assemblies. Sold in packs of 50, the quantity supports repeat service calls or production-level maintenance tasks without reordering frequently.

Key Features

• Spring steel construction resists compression set and maintains consistent thickness under load
• Lengthening shim type compensates for axial gaps and tolerance variations in mechanical assemblies
• 0.015-inch thickness for fine dimensional adjustment in close-tolerance applications
• 0.595-inch ID fits snugly over small-diameter shafts and fastener shanks
• 0.749-inch OD provides adequate bearing surface in compact housings
• Pack of 50 supports multi-unit service work or stocking purposes

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement shim for mechanical assemblies requiring a 0.595-inch ID, 0.749-inch OD, 0.015-inch thick round shim in spring steel.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed HVAC technicians, plumbers, or mechanical trades during equipment assembly or realignment service. Always de-energize and lock out electrical power and shut off any fluid supply before disassembling mechanical components to insert or replace shims. Ensure mating surfaces are clean and free of burrs before stacking or seating shims to maintain accurate dimensional control. Follow equipment manufacturer torque and assembly specifications for fasteners used in conjunction with these shims.
