Understanding Shim Washer Sizes
Shim washer dimensions are expressed as internal diameter x external diameter x thickness. All washers in this listing have a nominal thickness of 0.1mm.
Choose the internal diameter to suit the shaft or fastener clearance required, and the external diameter to suit the available space and supporting surface.
Key Features
- 0.1mm nominal thickness for fine adjustment.
- A2 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance.
- DIN 988 shim washer pattern.
- Choice of internal and external diameters.
- Suitable for adjusting axial gaps and component spacing.
Typical Applications
Used for setting end float, adjusting clearances and positioning components in shaft, bearing and machinery assemblies. Also suitable for small spacing corrections during equipment maintenance and assembly.
Selection and Installation
Measure the clearance to be adjusted and check both washer diameters before selecting a size. Fit against clean, flat supporting surfaces. Where thickness is critical, check the actual washer thickness against the assembly requirements.
Ordering
Select the required internal diameter, external diameter and pack quantity from the available options before adding to your basket.
