Questions about this item

Which thickness should I choose for fine alignment versus larger gaps?

Use the .001, .002, .003, .004, .005, .01, .015, .02, .025 in shims for precise adjustments and the .05, .075, .1, .125 in shims for wider gaps.

What does the 130-piece count mean when I am shimming a machine foot?

The kit provides 130 tabbed stainless shims in trade size B so you can stack multiple thicknesses to reach the exact height without waiting for a custom cut.

How does the 7/8 in slot width limit the bolt size I can use?

The 7/8 in slot fits bolts up to roughly 3/4 in diameter, letting you slide shims onto installed anchor bolts without removing them.
