Elevate Your Alignment Game with Accushims

At Knapp Fasteners, we’re all about empowering Canadian industries with the tools you need for peak operational efficiency. That’s why we’re proud to be a stocking Canadian distributor for Accushim kits, bringing you immediate access to premium shaft alignment solutions right here at home! We stock full and mini kits in sizes A-D. Looking for a specific thickness? We also stock packs of set individual thicknesses for sizes A-D as well.

Shims play a critical role in precision shaft alignment. They reduce vibration, extend bearing life, and ultimately save you costly downtime. While individual packs of Accushim slotted shims are fantastic for quick fixes, the real game-changer for any serious maintenance professional is a full size Accushim alignment kit.

Why Accushim Kits are Great for Your Warehouse

Imagine this: you’re in the middle of a critical alignment job. You need a specific shim thickness, but you’re digging through a disorganized pile of loose shims, or worse, realizing you don’t have the exact size you need on hand. That’s where an Accushim kit shines!

• Big Selection Available. Accushim kits come packed with 13 essential thickness sizes, ensuring you have the right shim for virtually any alignment scenario. No more frantic searches or waiting for a delivery when time is of the essence.
• Organization. Say goodbye to jumbled shims! Each Accushim kit is housed in a durable metal toolbox, complete with dedicated shim corrals. This keeps your shims neatly organized by size and thickness, making selection quick and efficient.
• Easy Shim Extraction. We know how frustrating it can be to remove stubborn shims. That’s why Accushim kits include handy shim extractors, designed to simplify the process and minimize delays.
• Built to Last. Just like the individual Accushim slotted shims you’ve come to rely on, the shims in these kits are crafted from durable, naturally corrosion-resistant stainless steel. Plus, each shim is etched with its size and thickness for easy identification.

The Accushim Advantage

Accushim slotted shims are engineered for efficiency. There’s no disassembly required to install. Their slotted design allows for easy installation around hold-down bolts, eliminating the need to disassemble equipment and saving you valuable time. Another perk is the standardized sizing. Accushim slotted shims come in standard trade sizes (A, B, C, D, and more!), perfectly matched to common bolt sizes and NEMA motor frames. This ensures compatibility and streamlines your alignment process. Here are the details for sizes A-D which are in stock:

• Size A: 2” x 2” – For 1/4″ to 5/8″ bolts (NEMA motor #’s: 42, 48, 56, 143, 145, 162-169, 213-219, 1610, 1810, 2110)
• Size B: 3” x 3” – For 1/2″ to 3/4″ bolts (NEMA motor #’s: 66, 253-259, 283-289, 323-329)
• Size C: 4” x 4” – For 3/4″ to 1-1/4″ bolts (NEMA motor #’s: 203, 204, 224, 225, 363-369, 403-409, 443-449, 504-509)
