When you need precision metal that performs under pressure, this phosphorus bronze shim delivers exceptional results. The .020" thickness provides the perfect balance between flexibility and rigidity, making it ideal for applications where other materials might fail. Whether you're crafting custom springs, creating bellows systems, or designing electrical contacts, this material offers the consistency and reliability you demand.
This ASTM B103 compliant phosphorus bronze shim isn't just metal—it's engineered material. The hardened surface ensures durability while maintaining excellent electrical conductivity, perfect for applications where both mechanical strength and electrical properties matter. The tight thickness tolerance of +/-.0035" means every piece meets exacting standards, so you never have to worry about inconsistent results.
What really sets this shim apart is its remarkable formability. Unlike stiffer metals, phosphorus bronze can be bent, shaped, and formed without cracking, making it perfect for:
Many metals promise performance but deliver frustration. This phosphorus bronze shim actually delivers. The 6.0" x 12" size gives you plenty of working material, while the .020" thickness provides that sweet spot between being too thin (tearing easily) and too thick (difficult to form). Electricians love it for its conductivity, engineers appreciate its strength, and hobbyists find it surprisingly easy to work with basic tools.
Whether you're repairing industrial equipment, creating custom musical instruments, or prototyping new designs, this shim material provides the foundation you need for reliable, long-lasting results. It's metal stock that actually performs as advertised—strong, conductive, and ready for whatever challenge you throw at it.
