Precision Brand 44260 Plastic Shim Stock 0.020 in Yellow

Product Description

The PRECISION BRAND 44260 is a color-coded flat shim stock sheet made from high-quality plastic, intended for professionals who need fast, accurate thickness selection without relying on a micrometer. At 0.020 inches thick and sized 10 inches by 20 inches, this yellow-coded sheet provides a reliable reference by color alone, cutting down on measurement time and reducing the chance of selecting the wrong thickness. Machinists, millwrights, and maintenance technicians reach for this format when fitting components, setting clearances, or fabricating custom gaskets on the shop floor or in the field.

This shim stock sheet is suited for a wide range of industrial and trade applications including equipment alignment, gasket fabrication, shimming machinery bases, and manufacturing of special parts. The flat-sheet format allows technicians to cut the material to the exact size and shape required for the job. It is commonly used in both light manufacturing environments and heavy industrial maintenance settings where precise gap control is critical.

Key Features

• Color-coded yellow finish identifies 0.020-inch thickness at a glance without measurement tools
• High-quality plastic construction resists corrosion and is suitable for non-metallic shimming applications
• Flat-sheet format at 10 inches by 20 inches allows field cutting to any required shape or size
• Eliminates need for micrometers during thickness selection, reducing errors and saving time
• Suitable for gaskets, part fabrication, and various manufacturing or maintenance applications

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose plastic shim stock sheet for use in machinery alignment, gasket cutting, and precision gap-setting applications across industrial and trade environments.

Installation Notes

Installation and fitting of shim stock should be performed by qualified machinists or maintenance technicians familiar with the equipment being serviced. Ensure the machine or assembly is de-energized and all moving parts are at rest before inserting or adjusting shims. Use appropriate cutting tools such as shears or a utility knife to trim the sheet to the required dimensions. Verify final thickness with a calibrated instrument when the application requires certified clearance tolerances.
