What is a Precision Shim – 12x8x1mm? The Precision Shim – 12x8x1mm is a thin, flat, and circular piece of stainless steel material designed specifically for precision engineering and mechanical applications, and it is often used to fill small gaps or spaces and adjust clearances between components. The Precision Shim- 12x8x1mm is designed primarily for alignment purposes. They help compensate for variations in manufacturing tolerances, ensuring that components fit together properly. Precision Shims are suitable for a variety of applications where alignment adjustment, clearance compensation and precision are crucial. Applications: Used in conjunction with screws to provide stability and support. Ensure accurate alignment and clearances in machine tools to enhance performance. Utilized in instrument calibration and precision machining processes to achieve accurate measurements and alignments. Ideal for CNC machines, motors, gears, and other mechanical components requiring precise adjustments. Specifications: Outer Diameter (OD): 12 ± 0.1mm Inner Diameter (ID): 8 ± 0.1mm Thickness: 1 ± 0.1mm Material: Stainless Steel 304 Pro Tips: Do not forget to grab M8 Bolts, Screws and Nuts to go with the Precision Shim. Precision Shims can also be used to dampen vibrations in machinery. By providing a cushioning effect, they help absorb and reduce the transmission of vibrations between connected components.
