Pre-cut metal shims, all with a thickness of 1.00 millimeter. Many materials make suitable shim stock (also often styled shimstock), or base material, depending on the context: wood, stone, plastic, metal, or even paper (e.g., when used under a table leg to level the table surface).
A machine screw is screwed into the sleeve, causing the anchor to bend, expand, spread and grip against the inside of the hole or behind it (in hollow contexts such as drywall over stud cavities, or hollow doors). [1] Mollies come in various diameters and grip lengths (shank lengths) for different drywall thicknesses and to support different ...
