484-0219: 1mm Thick Steel Shim

A Shim is a thin piece or layer of material that is inserted between two objects or components. Shims can be inserted to bridge these gaps and achieve the desired fit or clearance between parts. Common shim materials include metal steel, aluminum, brass, plastics, rubber, and composite materials. Attributes: • Help reduce unwanted vibrations • Hardened to Rockwell C scale hardness of 34-45 HRC to increase the strength and wear resistance • Distribute loads evenly between mating surfaces, avoiding localized stress concentrations Applications: A Shim is used to provide support to achieve the desired fit, ensuring that they can operate smoothly and efficiently.
