The material grade of an SS Shim Plate directly impacts its performance. SS 304 is widely used for general applications due to its durability and corrosion resistance. SS 316, however, is ideal for marine, chemical, and high-humidity environments, providing superior resistance to corrosion and the ability to maintain tighter thickness tolerances. Selecting the right material ensures consistent performance under load and environmental stress.
Material choice also affects manufacturing and tolerance control. High-quality stainless steel allows precise rolling, machining, and finishing processes. Trusted manufacturers, like Sachinshim, provide mill test certificates (MTCs) and quality documentation to verify material strength and compliance with international standards. Using certified SS Shim Plates ensures long-term reliability, minimal maintenance, and optimal performance in critical applications across automotive, aerospace, medical, and industrial sectors.
