Colour-Coded Plastic Shims
Colour coded from polyester films to meet the particular demands of the engineering, automotive, electrical and electronic industries, our plastic shim is remarkably tough with very high compression and dielectric strengths, very low water absorption and excellent dimensional stability over a wide range of temperatures, with good resistance to most chemicals, ozone, direct sunlight, etc. Our plastic shim sheet is available in packets or rolls. We also offer a range of metal shim stock, including stainless steel shim kits and brass shim sheets.
