Precision Brand 42225 Stainless Steel Slotted Shim 20 Pack

Product Description

The PRECISION BRAND 42225 is a stainless steel slotted shim packaged in a 20-piece pack, designed for precision alignment and leveling work on industrial and commercial machinery. Each shim measures 2 inches x 2 inches x 0.005 inches and is constructed from stainless steel for corrosion resistance and dimensional stability. The slotted design allows the shim to slide into position around a fastener without full disassembly of the equipment. Mechanics, millwrights, and maintenance technicians use these shims to correct misalignment on motors, pumps, generators, compressors, and similar rotating or stationary plant equipment.

These shims are suited for industrial maintenance applications where precise shimming is required to bring machinery into proper alignment or level. The 0.005-inch thickness makes them useful for fine-increment adjustments when stacking multiple shims to reach a target tolerance. They are commonly used in plant maintenance, mechanical contracting, and equipment installation environments where repeated access and repositioning may be needed.

Key Features

• Stainless steel construction resists corrosion in wet or chemically exposed environments
• Slotted design allows installation and removal without fully removing fasteners
• 0.005-inch thickness enables fine-tolerance stacking for precise alignment correction
• 2 inches x 2 inches footprint fits a wide range of motor and pump base applications
• Pack of 20 provides quantity for multi-point leveling jobs or ongoing maintenance stock

Compatibility

Designed for use with motors, pumps, generators, and general plant machinery requiring alignment or leveling shims at base mounting points.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by millwrights, industrial mechanics, or qualified maintenance technicians. Power down and de-energize all equipment before beginning any shimming or alignment work. The slotted opening allows the shim to be positioned around anchor bolts without full bolt removal, but fasteners should be loosened to the appropriate point to permit shim insertion. Re-torque all fasteners to equipment manufacturer specifications after final shim placement and verify alignment with appropriate measuring instruments.
