A shim is a thin, typically wedge-shaped piece of material used to fill in gaps or spaces between objects, provide support, or create a level surface. Shims can be made from various materials, including wood, metal, plastic, or composite materials, depending on the application. Shims are commonly used in construction, woodworking, machinery alignment, and many other fields. For example, in flooring installations, shims might be used to level out the floorboards.
