Lab Shims Lab Security Shelf Bracket LSM025

good

Great item. Worked great for slipping this shim between the pins on a dead bolt lock.

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.

The shims come in a small container to keep them from getting damaged or lost. The count is 25 per container, a good price for the quantity. The shims are sturdy and reusable (if your careful).

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

Correct Guage and stiffness. Worked great!

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!

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

They are exactly what I needed, and the price was very commpetative.

Nice and thin yet flexable.
