Picture this: you're assembling a motor or aligning pump parts, and that keyed shaft just won't stay put. A tiny gap means vibration, wear, and frustration down the line. That's where these 1008/1010 carbon steel notched shims come in—they're your go-to for spot-on spacing and secure locking.
Crafted from AISI 1008 or 1010 low-carbon steel, these shims offer solid strength without being brittle. The hard temper resists deformation, so they hold up under pressure. Magnetic properties make them easy to position, and the matte finish cuts glare in dim workshops, giving you a clear view as you work. At just 0.001 inches thick, with a 5/8-inch inner diameter and 1-inch outer, they're sized for common arbor and shaft applications.
Shims like these bridge gaps between machine components prone to wear, like bearings or housings. The notched design grips keyed shafts firmly, preventing slippage. Use them to level surfaces, improve seals, add support, or boost insulation—whatever your setup needs. They're especially handy for filling spaces in assemblies where tolerances are tight, extending the life of gears, motors, and tools.
Mechanic tweaking an engine mount? Slip one on to eliminate play. DIYer building custom machinery? Stack them for exact adjustments. In a busy shop, the pack of 10 means you're always ready—no more digging through drawers for that one shim. Their corrosion resistance handles humid garages, and wear-resistant surface stands up to repeated contacts.
Standard tolerances ensure they fit as expected, every time. No fancy tools needed; just place, align, and secure. If you're dealing with precision shims, arbor shims, or carbon steel shims for shafts, these deliver without the hype. Keep your projects humming smoothly—order your pack today and feel the difference in every turn.
