Shims & Spacers

  • aluminum-spacers-1

    Aluminum Spacers

    From: $0.32
    Select options

    These are awesome, high quality, custom made aluminum spacers.  They are great at making sturdy standoffs/spacings for your projects.

    Metric version of the spacer is 10mm OD which makes a very stable platform.  The spacer has M5 ID to give a thicker wall to keep the screw snug and centered.

    These spacers can be used in all sorts of builds.  For example, spacers can create a space between the Stepper Motor and Motor Mount Plate. This allows for room to mount hardware such as Couplers and Belt Pulleys to the motor shaft.

    An assortment of the most popular sizes are available.

These Eccentric Spacers come with a divot on the outside which allows you to know at all times where the smallest part of the cam hole is.
