Precision Shimming Material
This 316 stainless steel shim roll measures 6 inches wide by 50 inches long with a thickness of 0.002 inches. It is supplied in a soft annealed temper meeting AMS 5906B and ASTM-A-666-03 standards. The material offers a tensile strength of 185,000 psi and Rockwell hardness of C40-45. It is designed for accurate spacing and alignment tasks.
Build Integration && Tolerances
The roll format allows cutting custom lengths while the tight thickness tolerance of +/- 0.0001 inches ensures consistent shim stacks. Width tolerance is held to +/- 0.005 inches and length tolerance to +/- 0.250 inches. The plain finish and corrosion-resistant 316 grade suit demanding environments. No adhesive backing is included so mechanical retention is required.
Target Users && Limitations
This suits maintenance engineers and machinists needing precise, corrosion-resistant shim stock for alignment, leveling or spacing. Buyers requiring adhesive-backed shims, pre-cut shapes or different alloy grades should look elsewhere. The small pack size may not meet high-volume production needs. The soft temper limits use in high-wear sliding applications.

Questions about this item
How much force can the 316 stainless shim take before it yields under a constant load?
The annealed 316 stainless steel has a tensile strength of 185 000 psi and a Rockwell hardness of C40-45, so it resists permanent deformation up to that stress level.
Does the roll generate noticeable heat or noise when left in place for long periods?
It is a passive metal shim with no moving parts or electrical components, so it produces no heat and makes no sound during continuous use.
What tools or fasteners are needed to cut and install the 6-inch by 50-inch roll?
You will need snips or a shear capable of cutting 0.002-inch stainless steel and a way to secure the pieces such as bolts, clamps or adhesive.
