Precision Brand 44245 Plastic Shim Stock 0.010 in Brown

Product Description

The PRECISION BRAND 44245 is a color-coded flat shim stock sheet made from high-quality plastic, sized at 10 inches x 20 inches with a nominal thickness of 0.010 inches. The brown color designation identifies the thickness at a glance, eliminating the need for a micrometer during setup and reducing measurement errors on the shop floor or job site. This sheet is suited for machinists, millwrights, and maintenance technicians who need reliable, consistent material for shimming, gasketing, and precision fitment work across a range of manufacturing and mechanical applications.

This shim stock sheet is used in light manufacturing, assembly, and maintenance environments where precise spacing or alignment is required. Common applications include creating custom gaskets, filling gaps in machinery assemblies, aligning components during installation, and producing special parts that require a thin, consistent plastic layer. The flat sheet format allows technicians to cut the material to the required shape using standard shop tools.

Key Features

• Color-coded brown finish identifies 0.010-inch thickness without measuring instruments
• High-quality plastic construction resists corrosion and chemical exposure in typical shop environments
• Full flat sheet format at 10 inches x 20 inches allows flexible cutting to size
• Eliminates micrometer use during setup, reducing measurement errors and saving time
• Suitable for gasket fabrication, component alignment, and general manufacturing fitment

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose plastic shim stock sheet suitable for a wide range of light manufacturing, assembly, and mechanical maintenance applications where a 0.010-inch plastic shim material is required.

Installation Notes

Cut to the required shape using shears, a utility knife, or other appropriate shop cutting tools before installation. Ensure mating surfaces are clean and free of debris before placing the shim to maintain accurate thickness and alignment. Always verify final assembly clearances with appropriate measuring instruments after shimming is complete.
