Brass shim stock for precision alignment
This 150mm wide brass shim roll spans 2.5 metres and measures .8mm thick. It suits mechanics and machinists who need accurate spacing during machine repair, mounting or new assembly work. The half-hard temper holds shape while remaining workable for custom cuts.
Grade 260 brass with tight thickness tolerance
The material meets ASTM-B36, ASTM-B19, CDA-260 and SAE-CA-260 standards for consistent composition. Thickness tolerance is held to +/- .066mm, while width tolerance stays within +/- .008in. Length tolerance runs +3.000/- .125in across the full roll.
Plain finish resists corrosion in normal shop use
Brass construction provides natural corrosion resistance without coatings that could flake or contaminate fits. The material handles typical workshop temperatures and lubricants without degradation. Half-hard temper reduces spring-back when shims are bent into position.

Questions about this item
Will the 0.8 mm brass shim stock sit flat against older steel machine beds without rocking?
The half-hard temper and ±0.066 mm thickness tolerance keep the strip flat and consistent, so it mates evenly with existing steel surfaces.
How can I verify the 150 mm width and 0.8 mm thickness are within spec after I unroll it?
Measure width with a caliper against the ±0.008 in tolerance and thickness against the ±0.066 mm tolerance; both should fall inside those bands.
Does the 2.5 m roll include any adhesive backing or cutting tools, or must I buy those separately?
The roll is plain brass shim stock only — no adhesive, no tools — so cutting and fastening supplies are separate purchases.
