Color-coded plastic glass shims are able to align and level frames in three dimensions for proper spacing and optical flatness.
For temporary cushioning, glass shims protect the edges of glass installed on hard surfaces to prevent damage.
Horseshoe shims and U-shaped shims are ideal for fitting around bolts or hinges when installing glass in order to take stress off of the frame.
The advantage of utilizing solid plastic glazing shims is that they are designed to handle heavy weight temporarily or permanently and can withstand the pressure of the glass.
Able to withstand tons of compressed force, lightweight U-shaped shims are designed to fit around bolts and anchors.
Horseshoe shims are shaped to fit around a bolt or anchor and are frequently used during the installation of storefront windows.
Stack shims are made in fine thicknesses to allow precise increments of leveling or aligning by stacking multiple shims.
Wedge shims are designed for easy insertion where installation is required, especially where the object is installed then shimmed.
Flat plate shims are used where heavy loads are set on top of the shim,
often permanently.
Key slot shims are shaped to snap into place around a 7/16″ bolt with a restricted slot to keep them from sliding off a bolt or anchor.
Microgrid shims are available with precisely textured surfaces for stacking with increased slip-resistance.
