Trinity Brand Industries M-SW-25 Shim Stock Roll 302 Ss

Product Description

The TRINITY BRAND INDUSTRIES M-SW-25 is a 302 stainless steel shim stock roll used for precision shimming, alignment, and spacing tasks across mechanical and industrial applications. At 0.025 inches thick and supplied in a 50 inch by 12 inch roll format, this stock provides a workable surface area suited to field trimming and custom shim fabrication. The 302 alloy designation indicates an 18/8 chrome-nickel composition, offering solid corrosion resistance and good formability. Weighing 4.35 pounds, the roll is straightforward to store and handle on a job site. Machinists, millwrights, pipefitters, and maintenance technicians are the primary users of this material.

This shim stock roll is appropriate for residential and commercial maintenance environments, light manufacturing, and mechanical installation work. Common applications include leveling base plates, aligning flanges, setting bearing clearances, and achieving precise gap tolerances in mechanical assemblies. The roll format allows the installer to cut strips or blanks to any required shape using aviation snips, shears, or a utility knife with a straightedge guide. Type 302 stainless is a widely specified shim material where moderate corrosion resistance is required alongside dimensional stability.

Key Features

• 302 stainless steel construction with 18/8 chrome-nickel alloy composition for corrosion resistance
• 0.025 inch thickness provides a consistent, precise shim dimension
• Roll format at 50 inches long by 12 inches wide allows custom cut-to-size fabrication
• Formable material supports bending, cutting, and shaping without cracking

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose shim stock roll suitable for mechanical alignment, base plate leveling, flange spacing, and precision gap setting in a wide range of industrial and commercial maintenance applications.

Installation Notes

Shim stock should be cut using aviation snips, metal shears, or a scribe-and-snap method appropriate to the required shape. Deburr all cut edges before installation to prevent injury and to ensure accurate seating. Verify final shim thickness with a calibrated micrometer before completing any precision alignment. Follow applicable machinery manufacturer guidelines and relevant facility maintenance codes when performing alignment or shimming operations.
