Maudlin Products Slotted Shim E-6 6in 0.075in Pk10

Slotted Shim E-6 Pack of 10

This set supplies ten stainless-steel shims cut to trade size E with a 6 in length and 6 in width. Each piece is 0.075 in thick and features a 2 in wide slot that runs 4 in deep for bolt clearance. The material is 18-8 grade steel in a soft annealed temper with a plain silver finish. Thickness tolerance is held to +/- 0.002 in while length and width stay within +/- 0.015 in. Mechanics and maintenance crews use them for precise spacing and alignment tasks.

Suited for bolted assemblies needing exact gap

The untabbed, slotted design fits around existing fasteners without disassembly, making it practical for field adjustments on flanges, motor bases and structural connections. Buyers who need shims with integral tabs for handling or those requiring thicknesses outside the single 0.075 in option should look at other configurations. The pack contains only one thickness, so jobs demanding a graduated assortment will need additional sets.

Holds dimensions under clamp load without

The soft annealed 18-8 stainless steel compresses evenly when bolts are torqued, maintaining the 0.075 in thickness within the stated tolerance during sustained tightening. Because the material is not work-hardened, it resists spring-back and keeps the joint spacing stable over time. The plain finish avoids galvanic issues in mixed-metal assemblies, and the tight thickness tolerance prevents stack-up errors in multi-shim installations.
