Breakaway Tapered Shims
Dimpled Composite
Lined Composite
Smooth Wood
Easily snap off any excess to get the length you need. Use these shims to align cabinets, doors, and windows, or for other rough leveling.
Dimpled shims have breaks every ½ inch. They resist splitting when nailed or screwed, so they’re best to use when hammering is needed.
Lined shims are marked every 1/8 inch for clean, precise breaks.
