Shims

This page provides details of typical shim requirements along with benefits of using chemical milling.


Collection of Shims/Spacers/Gaskets

Benefits of chemical milling :

  • Low cost tooling

  • Customised parts – you design it – we make it!

  • Various apertures, shapes and bar combinations

  • Variable bar heights

  • Burr free & Stress free manufacturing method

  • Prototypes made quickly

  • High volume capabilities

  • Various surface finishes available

Shims:

Photofabrication has a wide experience in the manufacture of shims, customizing to your individual requirements. We offer prototypes through to full production runs on:

  • Individual Shims

  • Packs of shims in various thicknesses

  • Shims can be tabbed into a sheet to ease with installation

  • Laminated into adjustable stacks (see Laminations)

Shims are generally placed into an empty space to provide support and/ or balance, our process offers high precision parts, that have a burr free finish and has low cost tooling.
