The AccuTrex Difference
We have a process of manufacturing our AccuPeel® laminated shim stock that enables our customers to peel our shims without using heat or a blowtorch.
When compared to our competitors’ material, our customers have seen our laminated shims save them both time and money.
Our precise, easy-to-peel shim materials offer a uniform, even peel while meeting the latest revisions of AMS-DTL-22499 (formerly MIL-S-22499), AMS 4013, AMS 5500 and AMS 4508. Available in 24″ x 48″ sheets and made from .002″ and .003″ foils, we also can provide custom oversized sheets and partial sheets, as well as custom peel strengths for unique applications.
