- SizeH-8"x8"
- Precise alignment with ±0.001 in thickness tolerance
- Consistent fit from ±0.015 in length and width tolerances
- Corrosion-resistant 18-8 stainless steel construction
- Soft annealed temper allows easy forming and adjustment
- Ten shims per pack supply multiple spacing tasks
Precision Alignment Shims
These stainless steel shims provide accurate spacing for machinery alignment and equipment levelling. Each piece measures eight inches square with a nominal thickness of .050 inches. The pack contains ten shims suitable for maintenance technicians and plant engineers who need consistent gap control.
Thermal Stability and Material
The 18-8 stainless steel construction resists corrosion and maintains dimensional stability across temperature changes. Soft annealed temper allows the shim to conform to slightly uneven surfaces without spring-back. Thickness tolerance is held to +/- .001 inches while length and width tolerances are +/- .015 inches.
Build Integration
Each shim features a two and a half inch wide slot cut six inches deep for placement around anchor bolts or studs. The untabbed design lets the shim slide into position from the side without lifting heavy components. Plain finish surfaces mate cleanly with mounting faces and require no additional preparation.

Questions about this item
How do I slide the H-8 slotted shim onto an anchor bolt without lifting the equipment?
Loosen the anchor nut, align the 2 1/2 in slot with the bolt, push the shim down until it seats flat, then retighten; the open slot lets you install without raising the load.
Will the stainless steel shims corrode or need replacement in a damp environment?
The 18-8 stainless material resists rust in normal moisture; inspect periodically and replace only if thickness loss exceeds the 0.001 in tolerance.
At what load will the 0.050 in soft annealed shim begin to compress permanently?
The soft temper yields under sustained heavy clamping; if the joint sees loads that flatten the 0.050 in thickness beyond the 0.001 in tolerance, plan to shim again.
