Feature: IGS Pre-Cut Alignment Tab Shims and Laminated Shims
Pre-Cut Alignment Tab Shims
You won't get any sharp edges or burrs with IGS Pre-Cut Alignment Tab
Shims. Made from corrosion resistant 304 stainless steel, IGS tab shims
eliminate the need to hand-cut extra shims and IGS tab shims are totally
reusable.
Order a tab shim kit equipped with a wide range of shim
sizes and reduce the need to stack. IGS stocks regular and over-sized slots in
A, B, C and D sizes. Custom sizes AA, E, G and H are available - all up to
1/2" thick. Having the right size shim will save you time and money,
and more importantly, will provide you with a more stable alignment.
Laminated Shims
Comprised of .002" or .003" layers of metal foil, laminated shims are coated with a very thin adhesive, then compressed and bonded together into a single, solid sheet. When the sheets are cut into shims, the resultant parts are ideal for the aeronautical, armament, shipbuilding, compressor and many other industries.
Because individual layers can be easily peeled off, laminated shims can achieve the close tolerances of precision shims without the time and expense of precision manufacturing. The use of laminated shims also prevents dirt and foreign matter from accumulating between layers.
Shims can be fabricated with full laminations, or from 1/2 solid or 3/4 solid stock. All IGS laminated shims are fabricated from sheets manufactured according to AMS-DTL-22499.
