    Precision Shims: Secure Storage, Perfect Fit, Every Time.

    Precision Shims require a secure and organized storage environment to maintain their dimensional accuracy and ensure optimal performance. A well-managed warehouse offers the ideal solution, providing a dedicated space for this critical component. Utilizing robust shelving systems, specifically designed for vertical storage, maximizes space efficiency and allows for easy retrieval. Proper stacking techniques, minimizing pressure on individual shims, are paramount to preventing distortion and maintaining their precise tolerances. Regularly auditing your inventory and implementing a First-In, First-Out (FIFO) system is crucial for minimizing the risk of prolonged storage and potential settling. Clear labeling and detailed tracking – utilizing a Warehouse Management System (WMS) – are essential for quick identification and efficient order fulfillment. Warehouse storage provides a protected environment, shielded from direct sunlight and potential physical damage, significantly extending the lifespan of your Precision Shims and guaranteeing consistent quality for your applications. Its inherent organization and accessibility contribute directly to streamlined operations and reduced lead times.

    Space Requirements

    • Storage Size/Dimensions: Minimum 150 square feet, or a 10ft x 15ft area. Height clearance: 8 feet to accommodate stacking.
    • Storage Conditions: Dry storage is essential. The area must be well-ventilated to prevent dust accumulation and maintain a stable environment. Avoid direct sunlight exposure.
    • Special Handling: Precision shims are considered fragile items. Each shim should be individually wrapped in protective padding (bubble wrap or foam) to prevent scratching or damage during handling and storage. Palletizing is discouraged due to the delicate nature of the product.
    • Stacking/Shelving: Shelving units with adjustable shelves are recommended. Shelves should be 36 inches deep to accommodate the shims. Stacking shims no more than 3-4 high is advised for stability. Pallet storage is acceptable if the pallets are covered and the shims are wrapped.
    • Access Requirements: A standard 12ft wide loading dock is required for easy access. The warehouse door should be at least 9ft wide for forklift access. A clearance of 10 feet adjacent to the loading dock is needed for forklift maneuvering. Ensure adequate aisle space of 8 feet between shelving units for efficient movement.
