Parallel shim set No. 6344SP — wave-shaped, precision-ground shims by AMF

A Parallel shim set No. 6344SP designed for precise stacking and clamping of thin or multiple workpieces in machining and inspection environments

• Precision-ground spring steel
• Height steps of 2 mm
• Pair tolerance IT5 in height
• Nominal height tolerance ±0.004 mm
• Wave-shaped top reduces swarf retention

Repeatable stack heights for efficient clamping

The set provides precision-ground shims manufactured from hardened and tempered spring steel, delivering consistent stack heights and reliable repeatability in fixturing. Tight dimensional control — including a pair tolerance to IT5 and a nominal height tolerance of ±0.004 mm — reduces the need for repeated adjustments and speeds up changeovers. The wave-shaped top face assists in avoiding trapped chips on the support surface, which contributes to maintaining the intended clamping plane and protects the parallelism of the clamped component.

Material choice and tolerances that save setup time

The combination of spring steel and precision finishing ensures longevity under repeated clamping cycles while remaining thin enough for fine height adjustments. A material thickness of 0.3 mm and clearly defined height gradation of 2 mm allow for controlled buildup of shim stacks rather than improvisational packing. This reduces operator effort during setup and minimises the risk of stacked instability. Compliance of remaining dimensions with DIN ISO 2768 provides compatibility with standard tooling and fixturing practices in professional workshops.

Practical design for cleaner, safer workshop use

The wave-shaped surface geometry keeps the load zone clear of swarf, so the parallelism of the clamped workpiece is not impaired and no additional cleaning steps are required between adjustments. Precision grinding of each element preserves flatness on the bearing faces, which is beneficial when clamping several flat or individual thin components together. The set is intended for straightforward integration into existing clamping routines and is suited to industrial and trade environments where repeatability and cleanliness are priorities.

FAQ

What material are the shims made from and how does that affect durability? The AMF Parallel shim set No. 6344SP is made from hardened and tempered spring steel, which offers high fatigue resistance and maintains flatness under repeated clamping cycles.

What tolerances can be expected for stack heights? Stack-building with the Parallel shim set No. 6344SP is supported by a pair tolerance to IT5 and a nominal height tolerance of ±0.004 mm, ensuring reproducible results in jigs and fixtures.

Is the surface finish suitable for precision inspection fixtures? Yes, the precision-ground faces of the Parallel shim set No. 6344SP provide flat bearing surfaces that support accurate clamping and do not interfere with inspection tolerances.

Will chips or swarf affect clamping accuracy with these shims? The wave-shaped top profile reduces swarf retention on the support face, so the parallelism of the clamped component is preserved and additional cleaning between adjustments is often unnecessary when using this set.

Can the shims be combined to clamp very thin workpieces? The design allows easy stacking of several shims to achieve fine height adjustments, making the set suitable for clamping multiple thin or flat workpieces in a controlled manner.
