Precision Spacers for Model Setup

If you want to fine tune component spacing, the Serpent SER110408 shim set is a handy option. The kit contains ten 3X5X0.3 shims designed for accurate micro adjustments in model assemblies.

Why Fit Shims to Your Model

Shims let you tweak small clearances to improve alignment and cut down on undesired friction. They are handy when setting gear mesh, balancing suspension geometry, or making millimetre level corrections to moving parts.

Compatibility and Typical Uses

These 3X5X0.3 shims are versatile and fit many RC tasks. Use them for gearbox spacing, refining suspension link positions, or other spots where a consistent 0.3 mm shim helps achieve reliable setup repeatability.

How do I measure whether I need a 0.3 mm shim?

Use feeler gauges or a caliper to check gaps and run a quick gear mesh test. If gears contact too tightly or too loosely, a 0.3 mm shim is often the right step to correct mesh.

Will these shims corrode if left in humid conditions?

Depending on the metal finish, they may show surface rust over time. Store shims dry and consider a light oil if you expect exposure to moisture.

Can I stack multiple 3X5X0.3 shims?

Yes, shims can be stacked to reach desired thicknesses, but ensure stacks remain flat and secure to avoid wobble in rotating parts.

Are these shims safe near bearings?

They are fine for bearing spacers if fitted correctly. Avoid metal-on-metal contact that could nick bearing races; use shims as designed on shaft or spacer faces.
