Plastic Shims

Plastic shims crafted from durable polyester are widely valued in engineering for their use in shimming, spacing, and insulation tasks. Their distinctive colour coding corresponds to specific thicknesses, allowing for quick identification without measuring tools. These shims offer outstanding wear resistance and a strong strength-to-weight ratio, making them an effective alternative to metal shims.

Key Benefits of Plastic Shims

Exceptional tear resistance and tensile strength.
Highly resistant to abrasion and impact damage.
Maintains dimensional stability under various conditions.
Simple to fabricate and safer to handle compared to many traditional shimming materials.
