LAMINATED PEELABLE SHIMS
This laminated shim is the Jicey’s flagship product. Very few companies in the world have mastered the know-how to make them, and Jicey is recognised as the reference in this field. A laminated peelable shim is made up of a stack of individual layers glued together over their complete surface area and forming a laminated block of compact appearance. In use, the individual layers may be peeled off one at a time until the precise dimension required is obtained. This procedure allows assembly times and stocks of shims to be reduced considerably, and avoids the need to machine and grind solid shims. Download the brochure

VIEWTEK LAMINATED PEELABLE SHIMS
These are laminated shims in composite materials using a process for marking the thickness of the individual layers on the middle section of the part. In this way, by transparency, the thickness of the layer that is being peeled off should make it much easier to use. This procedure, together with the excellent peelability of the composite material, makes it a shim that reduces assembly times even more. The layers that have been removed may be used as unit elements for adjustment. Download the brochure

BI-COMPOSITION LAMINATED PEELABLE SHIMS
Bi-composition enables laminated peelable shims to be obtained that are made of layers of different thicknesses on each surface, marked by an exclusive colouring process. They enable the operator to carry out his adjustment by peeling off the thicker layers from one side and then peeling off a few thinner layers from the other. Bi-composition also enables material costs to be considerably reduced by using a maximum of individual thick layers. Download the brochure

SEPARABLE SHIMS
Separable shims are made up of a stack of individual layers stuck together by points of glue on the edge alone. Obtaining the right thickness is done very easily by removing the layers by hand, without any tools, until the required dimension is obtained. Unlike laminated peelable shims, separable shims are mainly used for assemblies that only require adjustment of average precision, in difficult exterior situations for which this procedure may be very economical and practical.

SOLID SHIMS
Solid shims, whether ground or not, are used in all cases in which serious constraints apply (vibration, traction, shearing or extremes of temperature). They are therefore found in certain aeronautical mechanical assemblies, such as the accessory gearboxes fixed on the engines of civil and military aircraft. They are of extremely high precision, strictly made to measure and for immediate use on site. Solid shims are available in a very wide range of materials and hardness. Download the brochure

EXTRA THIN SOLID SHIMS
These are solid shims that provide compensation of play that is often less than 1/10th of a millimetre. They are made to a drawing in steel, aluminium, stainless steel or polymer in thicknesses of 0.025, 0.05, 0.10, 0.20 and even from 0.01 mm for stainless steel. Whatever their shape, these parts are machined and not cut out, which guarantees a very high precision part without any burrs. Download the brochure
