Precision Brand 81515 Slotted Shim Stock Stainless Steel 10pc

Product Description

The PRECISION BRAND 81515 is a slotted stainless steel shim stock used to set precise clearances, align components, and fill gaps in mechanical assemblies. Each piece measures 0.1 mm thick, 5 inches long, and 125 mm wide, with a 1-5/8 inch wide slot that allows the shim to slide around a shaft or fastener without full disassembly. This package contains 10 pieces. Stainless steel construction resists corrosion and holds dimensional stability under load, making it suitable for use in wet, oily, or outdoor environments. Machinists, millwrights, and maintenance technicians commonly specify this stock for precision leveling and alignment tasks.

Slotted shim stock is used across industrial maintenance, equipment installation, and fabrication settings. The slot design is especially useful when shimming under pump bases, motor mounts, conveyor supports, and machinery feet where removing a fastener completely is impractical. The 0.1 mm thickness allows fine incremental adjustment when stacking multiple shims to achieve a target clearance. This package of 10 pieces supports repetitive shimming tasks or situations where matched sets are required at multiple mounting points.

Key Features

• Slotted design allows installation around fasteners without full bolt removal
• 0.1 mm thickness enables fine incremental gap adjustment when stacking
• Stainless steel material resists corrosion in wet and oily environments
• 125 mm wide profile provides broad bearing surface for load distribution
• 1-5/8 inch wide slot accommodates common fastener and shaft sizes
• 10-piece package supports multi-point alignment jobs

Compatibility

Designed as a standard slotted shim stock for use in general industrial maintenance, machinery alignment, and fabrication applications requiring 0.1 mm thickness increments.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by millwrights, maintenance mechanics, or precision alignment technicians. De-energize and lock out all equipment before placing or adjusting shims under machinery. Slide the slotted shim around the fastener or shaft before torquing fasteners to final specification. Do not substitute shim stock for structural spacers where dynamic or impact loading exceeds the material rating.
