Rocker Shims

Hello all,

Looking for some .005 and .015 rocker stand shims. Anyone know where I can get these?

Many, many years ago I bought a set from the original Joe Mondello.

I think the shim kits were only available with .015 and .030 thickness shims; .005 seems a bit ridiculous to me...just my two cents! I do have some brass shim stock available in .002 thickness. Send me a pm if desired.

McMaster Carr has a multitude of premade shims. They do not have any with 5/16 ID, but they do have 8 mm on this page that would work.
