The goal of our company is to provide each and every customer with spring type fastener components, along with a myriad of other products. Shim washers are just some of the items in our collection but they have left a lasting impression on those who have purchased them. Available in multiple sizes and at very competitive prices, we guarantee that you’ll find the components that suit your application.

Also going by the name support washers, these components are most typically utilised to fill in spaces between two elements. Their main functionality is to absorb tolerances and friction between them.

It’s quite often the case that components aren’t specifically designed to fit with each other perfectly, as doing so would take up a considerable amount of resources. Therefore, shim washers are introduced to fill in the gaps and to make certain that everything performs to the maximum level. They also work to preserve the parts, so that they don’t wear away too easily.

In terms of the material, shim washers can come in a massive array of types. Each of the materials has its own characteristics that give the products different performance properties. As a result it’s crucial to know what you want from your own in order to select the right one. Carbon spring steel is the substance that we specialise in, since it is waterproof, lightweight, and rather cost effective overall.

Making use of and replacing shim washers is much more inexpensive than both ensuring those perfect fits during the manufacturing process and regular maintenance checks. This makes them highly sought after for a range of applications.

At Caleb Components we have quite the selection of shim washers available in stock. If you are unsure about which sizes are most suited to your requirements, let us know and we’ll provide some expert advice. We can always be reached easily if you need to discuss specifics.
