Why use a shim washer?

Caleb Components stocks a wide range of Shim Washers to DIN 988 standard.
Carbon Steel, Plain Finish.

Shim Washers are made to precise dimensions and are used to take up excess space in assembles e.g. Bearing assemblies. As these parts come in a variety of thicknesses usually, 0.1mm, 0.2mm, 0.3mm, 0.5mm and 1.0mm (thicknesses above 1.0mm are generally classed as Support Washers), they offer a wide variety of packing thickness.

We also supply Shim Washer Kits for both the smaller sizes and medium sizes.
