Materials Startseite 9 Sheet metal working 9 Materials Materials for shims and shim washers Standard materials for shims and shim washers are rust-resistant stainless steel, cold-rolled strip steel, aluminum, brass, and plastic (PET). In addition to the usual standard materials, we also process a wide range of special materials on request. Aluminum Stainless steel Steel Brass Plastic Materials for solid sheets Single sheets can be processed from a thickness of 0.05 mm up to 20 mm as standard. The material specifications of our standard plates can be found in the table below. You can also obtain parts with surface finishes from us e.g. brushed or ground stainless steel, or galvanized sheet steel. If you need more materials, we will be happy to check your request for availability.
