  • 6 in width with +/-0.005 in tolerance ensures accurate fit
  • 100 in roll length provides ample material for multiple setups

  • 18-8 stainless steel meets AMS 5906B and ASTM-A-666-03 standards

Shim Stock for Precision Setup

This 6-inch wide by 100-inch long stainless steel shim roll provides 0.006 inch thickness for tool and die alignment work. The 18-8 grade material meets AMS 5906B and ASTM-A-666-03 standards with a plain silver finish. Full hard temper delivers Rockwell C40-45 hardness for reliable spacing in fixture assembly.

Consistent Thickness Under Clamping Load

The +/-0.001 inch thickness tolerance holds across the full length during bolt-down pressure in press tools. Width tolerance of +/-0.005 inch and length tolerance of +/-0.250 inch keep shims flat and parallel in progressive dies. Tensile strength of 185,000 psi resists permanent deformation when stacked under high compression cycles.

0.006 Inch Thickness Decides Fit

This single dimension determines whether the shim closes the exact gap in your die set or fixture stack. Thinner or thicker stock will not substitute when the design calls for this precise increment. Buyers needing different gap sizes must select another thickness from the range.

Questions about this item

Does the full-hard temper make the shim noisy or hot during all-day use?

The stainless-steel roll is a passive material; it generates no noise, heat or power draw while in service.

What tools do I need to cut and install the 0.006 in thick shim stock?

You need shears or a slitting tool for the 6 in width, a rule or caliper for the +/- 0.001 in tolerance, and a clean surface for the plain finish.

Will the 18-8 grade and C40-45 hardness damage softer aluminium or brass parts I keep?

The full-hard 185,000 psi tensile shim is harder than most non-ferrous alloys, so use a protective layer or limit contact pressure to avoid marking older components.
