Precision Shim Sheets for Accurate Spacing, Tolerance & Alignment
Vardhman Steel Overseas supplies high-precision Shim Sheets used for accurate adjustments in spacing, alignment, and tolerance management in mechanical assemblies. These ultra-thin sheets are critical in applications demanding tight dimensional accuracy and minimal clearances.
Shim Sheets are commonly utilized in Aerospace, Automotive, Tool & Die Making, Electronics, Machine Maintenance, and Hydraulic Assemblies. They are used as spacers, wear pads, leveling plates, and gaskets in high-precision environments.
We manufacture Shim Sheets in accordance with international standards like ASTM, SAE, BS, DIN, and EN. These sheets are available in thicknesses ranging from 0.02 mm to 3.0 mm, and in widths up to 600 mm. They are supplied in both coil and sheet form, with optional surface finishes like bright annealed, matte, or polished.
Each shim sheet undergoes stringent testing for thickness tolerance, flatness, and surface finish. We offer mill test certificates and third-party inspection as required, from agencies like DNV, TUV, Lloyds, and Bureau Veritas.
Trust Vardhman Steel Overseas for high-performance Shim Sheets that guarantee precision, reliability, and long-term dimensional stability across various high-accuracy applications.
