PRECISION BRAND 17265 Shim Stock Roll Brass 0.0040 In 6 In 100 In

Precision Brass Shim Stock Roll

This brass shim stock roll measures 0.0040 inch thick by 6 inches wide and 100 inches long. It meets ASTM B36, ASTM B19, CDA-260 and SAE CA-260 material quality standards for Grade 260 half-hard brass. The plain finish resists corrosion in general maintenance environments. Length tolerance is +3.000/-0.125 inch and width tolerance is +/-0.008 inch.

Replaces Thicker Or Thinner Shims

Builders switch to this 0.0040 inch thickness when a 0.004 inch gap must be held without compressing softer material. The half-hard temper keeps the shim flat under load while the brass alloy prevents galvanic corrosion in damp conditions. It is not for applications that require a different thickness tolerance or a non-brass alloy.

Fits General Maintenance Assemblies

The 6 inch width lets you cut strips for flange alignment, bearing adjustment or leveling tasks without joining pieces. Brass construction frees the assembly from rust stains that carbon steel shims leave over time. The 100 inch roll length supplies multiple cuts for repeat jobs. Buyers who need wider sheets or different alloys must source alternative stock.
