Precision Brand Arbor Shim 0.004 in Steel

This pack contains ten steel arbor shims measuring 0.004 in thick with a 1.375 in inside diameter and 1.875 in outside diameter. They are made from AISI 1008-1010 steel with a full-hard temper and plain finish. The shims suit maintenance and assembly tasks requiring precise spacing on arbors or shafts.

Replaces worn or missing shims on arbors

Use these shims to restore correct spacing when original shims are lost, damaged or compressed during service. The jump is worth it when the application demands the 0.004 in thickness with a tolerance of +/- 0.0005 in and the inside diameter tolerance of +0.011/-0.000 in. They are not for applications needing a different thickness, diameter or material grade.

Handles fine axial spacing on 1.375 in arbors

The shims comfortably handle fine axial positioning where the 0.004 in thickness and tight outside diameter tolerance of +/- 0.002 in are required. They run out when the assembly calls for a thicker shim, a larger inside diameter or a different steel specification such as a graded alloy. The pack of ten provides multiple shims for stacking or replacement.

Questions about this item

What arbor diameter does the 1.375 in inside diameter fit?

The shim's 1.375 in inside diameter with +0.011/-0.000 in tolerance fits a 1.375 in arbor, allowing a slight clearance for sliding onto the shaft.

How do you install these 0.004 in thick shims without bending them?

Slide each shim onto the clean arbor, stack as needed for spacing, then tighten the retaining nut evenly to avoid kinking the 0.004 in full-hard steel.

Will the plain-finish AISI 1008-1010 steel rust and need replacement?

The plain finish offers no corrosion protection; in damp or outdoor use the shims can rust and should be inspected periodically and replaced if pitting appears.
