Protomatic, Inc.
Differences of Common “T” Temper Designations for 6061 Alloy Aluminum Different industries, different specs. Various industries have different material specification methods. On many prints, raw materials that specify aluminum are not very specific and simply state use "Alum 6061-T6 " with no other designations. For the most part, this generic raw material requirement is used because a part may be fabricated from plate, extruded or rolled material. This gives flexibility to the job shop, and the engineer does not want to tie down the job shop due to an undefined... (read more) -

SPIROL
THE ADVANTAGES OF USING EDGE BONDED SHIMS Precision Shims are used as compensators to absorb tolerances between mating components. They significantly reduce manufacturing costs by eliminating the need for each component to be precision machined in order to achieve the proper fit and function of the total assembly. During the assembly process, Shims provide adjustment to compensate for accumulated tolerances that significantly reduces the need for re-machining and assembly time. Additionally, Shims are commonly used to preserve... (read more)Browse Shims and Shim Stock Datasheets for SPIROL -
