Selecting the correct shim material is essential for performance. Precut Shims made of stainless steel are ideal for turbines and compressors due to their precision and quick installation benefits. For areas exposed to chemicals or high moisture, SS Shim Plates in grade 316 or 316L offer superior corrosion resistance.
Engineers should always verify certifications like ISO 9001:2015 and ASTM compliance when sourcing shims. By using certified Precut Shims and SS Shim Plates, power plants ensure safety, reliability, and long-term operational success.
