Vertex VP-136 Precision Parallel Shim Set — 0.01 mm accuracy, compact case

The Vertex Precision Parallel Shim Set is a workshop kit designed for accurate set-up and fixturing tasks across machining and inspection applications.

• Precision tolerance 0.01 mm
• Compact storage case with clear layout
• Organised layout for quick selection
• Robust set for machining set-up tasks

Accuracy that reduces rework and set-up time

The core advantage of this parallel kit is its 0.01 mm accuracy, which ensures consistent reference surfaces for clamping, inspection and alignment. Accurate parallels minimise the need for repeated adjustments and reduce scrap, making processes more reliable. The tolerance figure refers to the maximum deviation between paired surfaces and is suitable where tight planar reference is needed; this precision supports efficient repeatability in batch operations and machine set-up.

Organised kit for faster changeovers

Housed in a compact case sized 390 x 292 x 82 mm, the set is arranged to allow rapid retrieval and return of individual parallels. A structured layout helps maintain workplace order and speeds up changeovers between jobs. The case design balances accessibility with protection during transport, helping teams maintain productivity without compromising component condition during handling.

How parallels support machining and inspection

Parallels provide stable, flat reference surfaces for workholding and measuring. When placed between a workpiece and the machine table or vice versa, they raise and align components so that clamping forces are distributed evenly and measurement errors are reduced. For shops and inspection benches, the use of quality parallels improves positional accuracy and reduces setup uncertainty compared with ad hoc supports.

Built for everyday workshop use

The kit’s design focuses on practical workshop demands: durable storage, repeatable geometry and straightforward integration into standard set-up routines. With a portable case and balanced weight (12.3 kg when packed), the collection is suitable for bench work, mobile toolrooms and event-based metrology checks. The SKU VP-136 identifies this particular configuration for ordering and stock control.
