Features:
- precision you can rely on: thickness held to a tight 0.0015 mm tolerance at 0.005 mm nominal - ensuring repeatable, accurate shimming and gap-setting at the finest increments.
- engineered for demanding applications: made from carbon steel 1.1274 (ck 101 / aisi 1095), cold-rolled and hardened to a tensile strength of 1800-2000 n/mm (52-55 hrc).
- extended coverage, less waste: 5 m roll provides generous working length - cut exactly what you need for each job without buying multiple fixed-size shims.
- ideal strip width for tight access: 12.7 mm wide strip fits between close-clearance mating surfaces, bearing housings, and machine slides where wider stock won't reach.
- trusted german engineering: hasberg-schneider is a specialist manufacturer of precision gauge strip and shim foil, supplying engineers and toolmakers globally to din/iso standards.
Achieving accurate gap control at the finest tolerances demands shim material you can trust absolutely. At just 0.005 mm nominal thickness, this shimstock is used where only the most exacting adjustments will do - optical instrument alignment, micro-precision jig-setting, and ultra-fine clearance work in aerospace and metrology environments. A shim with inconsistent thickness at this scale introduces error that compounds across assemblies.
The hasberg-schneider 0.005 mm carbon steel shimstock roll is manufactured from material 1.1274 (ck 101, equivalent to aisi 1095 / afnor nf a 35-553) - a high-carbon spring steel cold-rolled and hardened to a tensile strength of 1800-2000 n/mm (approximately 52-55 hrc). The 5 m roll conforms to a thickness tolerance of 0.0015 mm, guaranteeing dimensional consistency end to end. The 12.7 mm width suits confined spaces and narrow component interfaces. The surface is clean and edges are deburred, allowing immediate use straight off the roll.
At 0.005 mm nominal thickness, this roll covers one of the finest increments available in gauge shim stock - suited to precision manufacturing, instrument engineering, and specialist metrology applications. Simply cut the length required with shears or a blade. Supplied on a 5 m roll for economy and versatility.
