Shims for Shortening Screw Shoulders

Image of ProductInUse. Front orientation. Contains Annotated. Shims. Sold Individually, Shoulder Shortening, Round.

Pare down the shoulder on shoulder screws. Slide these shims under the screw head to create the length you need. Use them to tighten the hold on bearings, pulleys, and sprockets, or shorten the length of travel along the shoulder.

You can stack multiple shims to achieve the exact shoulder length or space you need.

18-8 Stainless Steel—The choice for wet and outdoor environments, these shims resist rust. However, they’ll corrode or pit when exposed to salt water and chemicals.

Super-Corrosion-Resistant 316 Stainless Steel—Superior to 18-8 stainless steel, these shims won't degrade when exposed to harsh weather, salt water, and most chemicals.

Stress-Resistant Spring Steel—These shims are harder and hold their shape better than carbon steel. Use them for high-stress applications, such as leveling heavy machinery. They're best for dry environments since moisture will cause them to rust.

Shim Assortments for Shortening Screw Shoulders

Image of Product. Front orientation. Shims. Round, Sold as Assortments, Shoulder Shortening.

Customize your shoulder lengths by keeping multiple shoulder-shortening shim sizes on hand. Pare down the shoulder on shoulder screws by sliding these shims under the screw head to create the length you need. Use them to tighten the hold on bearings, pulleys, and sprockets, or shorten the length of travel along the shoulder.

You can stack multiple shims to achieve the exact shoulder length or space you need.

Plastic Box—Labels in the lid make it easy to quickly find the right size.
