Ultra-Thin Stainless Steel Foil Sheet Fine Plate Strip Roll 0.005mm -1.5mm Thick

Measure the gap you need to fill using a feeler gauge or dial indicator, then select the foil thickness that matches or can be stacked to reach that measurement. For stacks, combine two or three thin sheets rather than relying on a single thick one — this gives you finer adjustment control. If you're unsure, order one step thinner and one step thicker than your estimate.

Yes. Thinner gauges (0.05mm–0.2mm) are commonly used as cut-to-shape gaskets for low-pressure applications such as HVAC flanges, plumbing unions, and light mechanical joints. For high-pressure or high-temperature sealing, consult a mechanical engineer to confirm suitability for your specific pressure and temperature ratings.

304 stainless steel is highly corrosion-resistant in most indoor and general outdoor environments. It resists rust from moisture and mild chemicals. However, it is not fully immune — prolonged exposure to chloride-rich environments (such as saltwater or de-icing salts) can cause surface pitting over time. For marine or coastal applications, 316 stainless steel is typically recommended instead.

For gauges up to 0.1mm, sharp scissors or a craft knife on a cutting mat work well. For 0.1mm–0.5mm, tin snips or aviation shears give clean edges. Gauges above 0.5mm are best cut with an angle grinder, rotary tool, or CNC/laser cutter for straight, burr-free edges. Always deburr cut edges before handling to avoid cuts.

These strips are compatible with standard metalworking workflows. They can be drilled, punched, bent, welded (TIG preferred for thin gauges), and bonded with metal-rated adhesives. Thinner gauges (≤0.05mm) require care to avoid tearing during forming — use backing material or a forming block when bending sharp angles.

Choose 12.7mm (~1/2") when working in narrow slots, channels, or around fasteners where a wider strip would interfere with adjacent components. Choose 25mm (~1") when you need broader surface coverage — for example, when cutting multiple narrower strips from a single piece, or when the shim or gasket footprint requires more width. Both widths are available across most thickness options.

Yes — stacking is a standard shimming technique. For example, combining a 0.1mm and a 0.05mm sheet gives you 0.15mm. Keep stacks flat and clean between layers to avoid introducing measurement error. For critical precision applications, verify the combined stack thickness with a micrometer before final assembly.
