Product Overview
Amylove presents a high‑quality stainless steel shim stock designed for precision and durability. Each strip measures approximately 16 inches in length and is available in widths ranging from 1 to 3 inches, with a consistent thickness of 0.02 inches. Made from 304 stainless steel, the shims resist corrosion and rust, ensuring a long service life even in demanding environments. The protective PVC backing keeps one side mirror‑smooth, ready for immediate use.
Usage
These shims excel in a variety of applications, from fine‑tuned crafts and decorative projects to functional magnetic tool installations. Hobbyists can bend and cut the strips to create custom brackets, supports, or artistic elements. Professionals in industrial settings use them for precise spacing, alignment, and as non‑magnetic inserts in magnetic assemblies. The lightweight design (just over a pound per pack) makes handling easy for both DIY enthusiasts and seasoned technicians.

FAQ
Can the shims be cut with standard tools?
Yes, the 0.02‑inch thickness allows cutting with tin snips, metal shears, or a fine hacksaw without compromising strength.
Are the shims magnetic?
The stainless steel used is non‑magnetic, making the shims ideal for spacing in magnetic assemblies where interference must be avoided.
What is the best way to remove the PVC backing?
Gently peel the backing from one corner and pull steadily; the PVC releases cleanly without leaving residue on the polished surface.
Do the shims rust over time?
No, the 304 stainless steel composition provides excellent rust resistance even in humid or outdoor conditions.
Can these shims be used for industrial alignment?
Absolutely. Their dimensional stability and resistance to deformation make them suitable for precise alignment and spacing in industrial equipment.
