What are the Benefits of Shims?
It is important to assess whether or not your device would benefit from a shim and the easiest way to determine this is by checking for large gaps between components within the inside of the mechanism. Sometimes there is room for components to move around. Consequently, the risk of friction damage and wear and tear on the inside of the device increases. Placing a shim inside to fill the gap creates a tighter fitting alignment allowing no room for unnecessary movement.
Brass Shim Manufacturers
Moreover, as leading brass shim manufacturers, we are proud to work with high quality brass strip material, including brass cz108. We source all of our materials from our own portfolio of trusted suppliers. This ensures we are working with only the finest quality materials and resources. Brass shims are a particularly beneficial component to use within your machinery due to their strength and durability. Brass material provides a strong resistance to water. However, also demonstrates an exceptional resistance in environments, which present fuel, oil, gasoline, kerosene and alcohol. These impressive qualities make brass shims the ideal component to use in automotive applications.
