- TypeShims and Shim Stock
- Size12 x 50"
- Precise spacing with ±0.001 in thickness tolerance
- Corrosion-resistant 316 stainless steel for harsh environments
- Annealed temper allows easy forming and cutting
- Meets AMS 5906B and ASTM A666 standards
- 12 x 50 in roll covers large assemblies
Precision Shim Stock for Critical Alignment
This 316 stainless steel shim roll delivers consistent 0.015 inch thickness across a 12 by 50 inch sheet. The annealed temper ensures easy cutting and forming without springback. It meets AMS 5906B and ASTM A666 standards for reliable spacing in machinery, tooling, and aerospace assemblies.
Tight Tolerances and Stable Material Properties
Thickness tolerance is held to +/- 0.001 inch with width tolerance at +/- 0.010 inch and length tolerance at +/- 0.250 inch. The material carries a Rockwell hardness of C40-45 and tensile strength of 185,000 psi. The soft annealed finish prevents work hardening during installation and allows precise hand trimming.
Ready for Fabrication and Immediate Use
Supplied as a flat silver roll, it feeds directly into shears, lasers, or hand tools for custom shim blanks. The 316 grade resists corrosion in harsh environments where carbon steel would fail. Builders needing adhesive-backed or pre-cut shapes will require separate processing.

Questions about this item
How do I cut and fit the 12 x 50 inch annealed stainless steel shim roll, and what tolerance should I watch?
Cut the 0.015 in thick roll with shears or a fine-tooth saw; hold the length within +/- 0.250 in and width within +/- 0.010 in for proper spacing alignment.
Will the 316 stainless shim stock work-harden or need replacement after repeated bending?
The soft annealed temper (Rockwell C40-45) resists cracking during forming, but repeated flexing will gradually harden the material; replace when bends no longer spring back cleanly.
At what load does the 185,000 psi tensile strength limit appear during sustained clamping?
Under continuous clamping stress approaching 185,000 psi the shim will begin permanent deformation; stay well below that value for long-term spacing reliability.
