What are the Benefits of Plastic Shim Sheets?

Our plastic shim sheets are a highly popular shim material with our customers at Stephens Gaskets. Plastic shim material is extremely versatile, and can be used in a broad range of applications due to its vast range of properties. Consequently, plastic can withstand an extensive range of temperature tolerances as well as boasting an extremely high wear resistance. A plastic shim has a good corrosion resistance with a low co-efficient of friction. Plastic shims are very durable, long wearing and resist corrosion; they also do not absorb moisture making them one of the most common materials to use for shims and washers.
