Precision Brand 42950 Stainless Steel Slotted Shim 130 Pc

Product Description

The PRECISION BRAND 42950 is a 130-piece mini assortment of Size B stainless steel slotted shims measuring 3 inches x 3 inches, designed for precision alignment and leveling of motors, pumps, generators, and general plant machinery. Stainless steel construction resists corrosion and holds up in wet or chemically active environments. The slotted design allows the shim to slide into position around a bolt or shaft without full disassembly, saving significant time during installation and adjustment. This assortment covers a range of thicknesses in a single package, making it practical for maintenance technicians and millwrights who need to work across multiple machine sizes on a single job.

This shim assortment is used in industrial and commercial maintenance settings where precise equipment alignment is required. Typical applications include base plate leveling, motor-to-pump alignment, fan and blower mounting, and machinery installation on concrete pads or steel frames. The multi-piece assortment format suits maintenance shops, plant facilities, and field service technicians who frequently service rotating equipment and need a variety of shim thicknesses readily available without ordering individual sizes.
