MS-26 MOLDABLE SHIM

Frozen moldable shim

MS-26 moldable shims are filled epoxy resin compounds used to shim gaps in metal or composite assemblies. Originally developed for use in airframe assemblies, the moldable shims are now used in a wide variety of equipment alignment applications as well as land, air and sea applications.

Use

• Shimming gaps and offsets at the assembly level (metal and composites)
• Cast in place shim, forming complex contours on parts machined undersize at detail level
• As a layer, over rough machined parts, eliminating finish machining
• Close tolerance molding to produce accurate and identical parts
• Repair of dents, holes and faring applications
• Economical correction of tooling
• Alignment of heavy machine or motor parts
• Alignment of propulsion systems (marine applications, chocking)
