Machine downtime is costly — and in food and pharma facilities, it can halt entire production batches. Stainless Steel Shims help prevent this by maintaining precise alignment between moving parts. Their strength and resistance to fatigue ensure long-lasting stability, reducing the frequency of adjustments and repairs. These shims handle vibration, thermal expansion, and mechanical wear without losing shape. When made from 304 or 316L stainless steel, they resist corrosion from cleaning agents and sterilization processes. By using Stainless Steel Shims in your maintenance program, you not only enhance equipment reliability but also boost productivity and reduce operational costs.
