Stainless Steel Shim Foil

Stainless steel, also known as inox steel, is a steel alloy with a minimum of 10.5 or 11% chromium content by mass.Stainless steel does not stain, corrode, or rust as easily as ordinary steel, but it is not stain-proof.

Stainless Steel Shim & Foil

Stainless Steel Shim Foil

Shim and foil when thickness has to be exact

Sometimes you are not building a tank — you are filling a gap, lining a joint or packing a machine to a few tenths of a millimetre. That is where stainless shim and foil earn their keep.

We also handle duplex and nickel-alloy shim routes. For thicker flats, use sheet or coil.

What shim / foil is

Precision-thickness stainless (and related alloy) stock for spacing, gasketing, lining and fine fabrication. Thickness control and temper matter as much as the grade.

How thin can it go?

It depends on grade and mill — often from about 0.02 mm upward. Tell us the thickness, tolerance and width you need; we will say what is realistic from stock or mill.

How to order without back-and-forth

Grade, thickness (and tolerance if it is critical), width, length or coil, temper if specified, and quantity. Email sales@savoypipinginc.com.
