Adaptability to different environments makes Plastic Shim popular material used in engineering for shimming and insulation applications worldwide. No surprise as to why Shims are the first choice for a reliable and durable material, allowing you to control thickness spacing for your BIG and small project.

Today, we are proudly introducing our own branded RS PRO Red Plastic Shim offering you different performance characteristics than metal, such as folding endurance, chemical resistance or tensile strength to break.

The Plastic Shim goes even beyond that, and thanks to the straightforward concept that different thickness indicates the other colour, you can eliminate the need to use a micrometre.

Features and Benefits

Our Plastic Shim provides excellent wear-resistant

The plastic matte shows high strength to weight ratio, and you can consider as an alternative to metallic shimming materials

Simple, but the effective colour-coded design of Shims is perfect for die-cutting projects

Corrosion Resistance

Outstanding adaptability as you can trim it and manipulate the plastic as you want

No absorption of moisture

You save your valuable time as you do not have to use the micrometre

Chemical resistance

Can withstand a high range of temperatures

Low-cost Plastic Shim with approval of industry standards for thickness
