Industries

A shim’s main function is to take up space. Utilizing shims allows operators to easily level, aligning, or position objects until permanent support can be installed. Plastic shims can be used in a variety of industries, for multiple purposes. At Grove Shims™ we create a wide range of shims designed to meet your industry’s needs with varying shapes and load-bearing properties.
