Precision Brand 44701 Arbor Shims 0.001x3/8x5/8 in Color Coded 10pk

Product Description

The PRECISION BRAND 44701 is a pack of 10 color-coded arbor shims designed for precise tooling and spindle alignment on machine equipment. Each shim measures 0.001 inches thick, with a 3/8-inch inner diameter and a 5/8-inch outer diameter. These thin shims allow machinists and maintenance technicians to achieve tight tolerances when mounting cutting tools, grinding wheels, or other arbor-mounted equipment. The color-coding system makes quick thickness identification straightforward during setup, reducing the chance of mixing shims of different gauges on the shop floor.

Arbor shims like these are used in industrial and commercial machining environments where precise axial positioning of rotating tooling is required. They are suited for lathes, milling machines, grinders, and similar equipment where arbor-mounted tools must be spaced or adjusted to exact tolerances. Maintenance mechanics and tool-and-die tradespeople typically keep assorted shim stock on hand for regular machine setup and calibration tasks.

Key Features

• 0.001-inch thickness for fine tolerance adjustment
• 3/8-inch inner diameter fits standard small arbors
• 5/8-inch outer diameter provides adequate bearing surface
• Color-coded for fast visual identification by thickness
• Pack of 10 shims for multi-position or repeat setups

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style precision shim for use with arbor-mounted tooling requiring a 3/8-inch bore and 5/8-inch outer diameter fitment on standard machining equipment.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or maintenance mechanics during tooling setup or machine calibration. Power down and lock out the machine before removing or installing any arbor-mounted tooling or shims. Verify shim thickness with a calibrated micrometer before final assembly. Handle thin shims carefully to avoid distortion that could compromise tolerance accuracy.
