Lab Shims Lab Security Shelf Bracket LSM025

Completely pleased with these shims, well made and worked as expected.

When these were purchased I had never attempted to shim a lock. Since theyve arrived Ive opened seven or eight locks in effort to develop some skill. They simply work.

Ordered these shims. They came packaged in a good plastic case. 25 shims of good quality. They were exactly as described. Very fast shipping and arrival.

Have not used them yet, but I now have them on hand when needed..

Just what i needed thanks

Great product

I can find them for less at another vender but, the shipping cost made the difference. They the same distributer and worked great for me. I would recommend the purchase

These are used when re-pinning a lock to keep the pins from popping out when you remove the core. These are NOT padlock shims that are used on padlocks to slide around the shackle and cause a spring loaded shackle retaining mechanism to retract thereby opening the padlock, aka shimming a padlock. As others have noticed, these are too thin for padlock shimming and are the wrong shape and size. That being said, some padlocks have very little clearance around the shackle and could possibly be shimmed by using this very thin material if cut to a proper size to fit. It is not their intended purpose and one shouldnt review them negatively for being too thin as a padlock shim as this isnt their intended purpose. Go to the Sparrows website and search on padlock shim to see what padlock shims look like. Cheers!

I would like to see them with a little more carbon. They are too flexible, but better than some.

Really works, already rekey around 15 locks using only one.
