• 5 m length, 12.7 mm width
• Supplied in a plastic case

Precise shimming that reduces rework and setup time

The 0.08 mm thickness of this shim tape delivers a reproducible layer for alignment tasks and tolerance checks. Made from hardened spring steel, the material maintains its thickness across repeated use, ensuring that calibration or assembly steps are not compromised by material deformation. In practice, consistent shimming reduces repetitive adjustments and minimises machine downtime by enabling faster initial alignment and reliable repeatability during maintenance cycles.

Durable design for safe, industrial handling

Edges are deburred to prevent snagging and to protect hands during repeated use. The spring steel base provides high fatigue resistance and corrosion tolerance under normal workshop conditions, which extends service life and lowers replacement intervals. The result is a robust measuring aid that remains safe to handle and dependable in environments where small, precise shims are required on a daily basis.

Practical dimensions that suit a range of tasks

With a width of 12.7 mm and a generous 5 m length, the strip is long enough to serve as a continuous shim for extended joints or to be cut to bespoke lengths for one-off adjustments. The narrow width allows access into confined gaps while still offering enough surface area for reliable contact during gap inspection and tolerance verification. This combination of dimensions supports both bench work and on‑machine alignment.

Clear benefits for quality assurance workflows

Using a continuous gauge band simplifies documentation and traceability in inspection procedures. The material stability and defined thickness support compliance with assembly tolerances and reduce the likelihood of parts being produced out of spec. For quality teams, the strip is a straightforward tool to standardise small-gap measurements and to create consistent stack-ups with minimal interpretation.

Easy storage and integration into the tool kit

Supplied in a compact plastic case, the strip is protected from dirt and deformation while stored, which preserves the critical thickness specification. The case supports orderly workshop practices and helps maintain measurement quality between jobs. Combined with the strip’s resilience, this results in a practical accessory that integrates smoothly into standard inspection and assembly tool sets.

Support and application advice for industrial users

If there is uncertainty about suitability for a particular material or tolerance range, technical guidance is available to match the strip to the task. Advice covers correct cutting, handling to preserve thickness accuracy, and typical use cases in machine construction and inspection. Such support helps ensure the strip contributes to efficient and traceable measurement processes.

FAQ

What is the nominal thickness and how precise is it?
The strip has a nominal thickness of 0.08 mm; the hardened spring steel construction ensures stable thickness for repeatable shimming and measurement.

Can the strip be cut to length for bespoke shimming tasks?
Yes, the tape can be trimmed to the required size; follow standard cutting and deburring practice to preserve the edge finish and thickness accuracy when using the TECWERK feeler gauge strip (SKU 2000851447NW).

Is the material suitable for repeated use in an industrial environment?
The hardened spring steel material and deburred edges are selected for longevity and safe handling, so the strip withstands repeated insertion and removal typical in workshop and machine‑building contexts.

What applications are the strip intended for?
Typical uses include alignment under bearings or housings, tolerance verification during inspection, and gap inspections where a continuous, narrow shim is advantageous.
