Product Definition:
Shim washers are thin, flat washers that are used to fill in space or adjust the height of a fastener. Shim washers can be made from a variety of materials, including metal, plastic, and composites. They are often used in applications where there is a slight difference in the thicknesses of two parts that need to be joined.
Carbon Steel Shim Washers:
Carbon steel shim washers are used in the manufacturing of automotive parts such as, Shimmy Bars, Idler Pulleys, and other small components. The product is manufactured using carbon steel that has been processed to remove unwanted elements like sulfur and phosphorus. They have a hexagonal shape due to which they are known as hexagonal close-tolerance washers.
Brass Shim Washers:
Brass shim washers are used in automotive applications to reduce the play that is present between two parts of a mechanism. They are also known as spacer washers or spacers and can be manufactured from various materials such as metal, plastic, rubber and other synthetic compounds. The most commonly used material for manufacturing brass shim washers is plastic due to its low cost & weight along with high durability.
Application Insights:
The mechanical engineering segment accounted for the largest market share in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The growth can be attributed to factors such as growing demand for industrial machinery and equipment, especially in developing countries like India, China, Brazil and South Africa. These washers help reduce vibrations caused by heavy machinery operating at high speeds thereby ensuring smooth functioning of various machines. They are also used on account of their low maintenance cost which makes them an ideal solution over the long term.
Automotive engineering was another prominent application segment accounting for a significant market share in 2017 owing to rising demand from passenger cars as well as heavy vehicles such as trucks and buses from major markets including North America, Europe and Asia Pacific. In addition, these products assist reduce noise pollution generated by automobiles traveling at high speeds which helps enhance driving experience resulting in increased sales across all vehicle types mentioned above (passenger cars included).
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific was the largest market in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The region has been witnessing rapid growth in infrastructure development, which is driving the demand for construction materials including steel and aluminum. This, in turn, is likely to drive product demand from 2018 to 2030.
The U.S., as well as Mexico are among the top 10 manufacturing hubs globally owing to their strong industrial base of automotive and machinery industries respectively. As per a study by Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation about economic impact of innovation on manufacturing sector of America, research-based innovation has had a positive impact on all three measures (employment; GDP; trade) during 1980-2016 period while R&D investment has had significant impacts only on employment during 1990-2016 period whereas it impacted overall GDP positively throughout 1980-2016 period).
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from the automotive and construction industries
- Growing popularity of shim washers in the aerospace industry
- Rising demand for customized shim washers
- Technological advancements in the manufacturing process of shim washers
- Growing awareness about the benefits of using shim washers

Frequently Asked Questions?
Shim washers are a type of fastener used to secure two pieces of wood together. They are made from a thin sheet metal that is bent around the edges of the two pieces to create a lip. The Shim washer is then inserted between the two boards and tightened with a wrench. This creates tension on the Shim washer, which holds the boards together
