Custom Shims
While we produce industry standard, pre-cut tab alignment shims, most of our shim work revolves around creating custom work for our customers. We build to a customer’s specifications in both project dimensions and sizes, as well as in materials. We’ve been doing so since 1961–and we draw upon that experience in our work, especially when it comes to challenging and difficult projects other companies may not be able to accommodate.
Why IGS Industries?
IGS Industries was founded upon shim and gasket production for local businesses in the Pittsburgh area. Since then, we’ve grown tremendously and now serve a world-wide customer base. We are passionate about our work, committed to your deadlines, and proud of the reputation we’ve created for ourselves. To help make life easy for you, we’ve taken the last 50 years and expanded upon our gasket and shim services, creating a business that can provide all your custom part and sealant solutions here under one roof.
