Precision feeler strip M318.685 — 0.85 mm thickness, 5 m length (Metav IndustryLine)

The Precision feeler strip M318.685 is a long-format, narrow shim tape designed for gap setting, shimming and precision clearance adjustments across industrial assembly, plant maintenance and toolmaking applications.

• 0.85 mm thickness for defined clearances
• 5 m continuous length for custom shims
• 12.7 mm working width for confined joints
• ±0.05 mm tolerance for reproducible results

Consistent thickness for reliable gap control

The 0.85 mm nominal thickness provides a stable baseline for clearance and shim work where repeatable dimensions are essential. With a stated ±0.05 mm tolerance the material supports quality checks and simple pass/fail decisions during setup and inspection. This level of control reduces iteration during assembly and helps maintain consistent component behaviour across repetitive production tasks, translating into fewer rework cycles and more predictable machine performance.

Long continuous length that speeds up onsite adjustments

A 5 m continuous format allows production staff to cut bespoke shim pieces on demand rather than relying on multiple pre-cut gauges. The continuous length reduces material joins and minimises the need for stocking many individual sizes, which streamlines logistics and saves bench space. For maintenance and fixturing work, the uninterrupted tape enables multiple shims to be produced from a single roll, increasing operational efficiency and shortening adjustment times during on-site interventions.

Narrow width and handling that suit confined assemblies

The 12.7 mm working width is tailored to applications with restricted access such as bearing seats, valve clearances or thin-walled housings. The slim profile aids insertion in tight gaps while the strip format ensures controlled placement and trimming. Combined with the product’s measured tolerance, the format promotes repeatability and reduces measurement uncertainty when fitted into stacks or layered shims, improving the predictability of final assembly fits.

Industrial readiness and supply backed by experience

Supplied under the Metav IndustryLine, this strip is positioned for consistent workshop use and integration into maintenance inventories. The product’s specification and format make it suitable for a wide range of industries, from plant engineering to precision toolmaking, where standardised shim thicknesses and durable handling are required. As a long-format precision material, it supports both ad hoc repairs and planned production adjustments, helping teams achieve measured outcomes with less downtime.

FAQ

What applications is this strip suited for?
The precision feeler strip M318.685 is suited for shimming, gap setting and clearance adjustments in assembly, plant maintenance and toolmaking where a 0.85 mm baseline thickness is required.

Can pieces be cut to custom lengths from the roll?
Yes — the 5 m continuous length allows bespoke shims to be cut to size on site for immediate use, reducing the need to stock multiple pre-cut sizes.

How precise is the material for measurement tasks?
The strip is specified with a tolerance of ±0.05 mm, supporting reproducible results for standard industrial shimming and basic inspection tasks.
