Precut shims offer a lower cost per unit and immediate availability, making them ideal for high-volume industrial applications. They are standardized in stainless steel, SS shim plates, or brass shim sheets, providing quick installation without modification. Custom shims, on the other hand, require tailored production, resulting in higher costs and longer lead times.
Despite the cost, custom shims provide exact fit, load distribution, and alignment for complex assemblies. Experienced shim manufacturers in India offer both solutions, enabling industries to balance efficiency, budget, and precision. By understanding project requirements, engineers can choose precut shims for repetitive applications and custom shims for high-precision machinery, ensuring both cost-effectiveness and reliability.
