Precision Brand 44520 Plastic Shim Stock Sheet 5pc

Product Description

The PRECISION BRAND 44520 is a plastic shim stock sheet used for precision alignment, leveling, and spacing in mechanical and industrial applications. Each sheet measures 5 inches wide by 20 inches long with a thickness of 0.0020 inches, making it suitable for fine-tolerance shimming tasks. The material is red-colored plastic, which aids in visual identification during installation or inspection. This pack contains 5 sheets. Shim stock of this type is typically handled by millwrights, machinists, HVAC technicians, and maintenance professionals who need consistent, thin-gauge material for equipment alignment or gap filling.

Plastic shim stock sheets are used across a wide range of trade and industrial settings. Common applications include leveling machinery bases, aligning pump and motor assemblies, closing gaps in HVAC equipment housings, and providing consistent spacing during equipment installation. The 0.0020-inch thickness makes this sheet appropriate for very fine adjustments where metal shim stock may not be preferred due to corrosion concerns or electrical isolation requirements. Suitable for both light commercial and industrial maintenance environments.

Installation Notes

Plastic shim stock sheets are typically cut to size using shears, scissors, or a utility knife before installation. Power down or de-energize any equipment before inserting shims into tight mechanical clearances. Follow applicable equipment manufacturer guidelines and relevant trade codes when performing alignment or leveling work. Avoid using plastic shim stock in applications involving sustained high heat, as the material may deform under extreme temperatures.
