Product Information

Full details

The Flat Packer 2mm x 28mm x 100mm is an essential tool for professional carpenters, contractors, and DIY enthusiasts who require precision alignment, leveling, and spacing during construction or joinery projects. These durable spacers provide a stable foundation for structural and finishing work, ensuring uniform gaps and perfectly level surfaces. While they offer exceptional stability for heavy-duty applications, users should note that they are designed as non-compressible units and cannot be trimmed to varying thicknesses once placed in a stack.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can these packers be cut to size?

Yes, they can be trimmed using standard woodworking tools if the 100mm length is too long for your specific application.

Are these packers compressible under heavy loads?

No, they are manufactured from rigid, high-quality materials specifically designed to be non-compressible under standard construction loads.

How many units are in a box?

Each box contains 1000 individual 2mm x 28mm x 100mm flat packers.

Are these suitable for outdoor use?

Yes, the material is highly resistant to environmental changes and is suitable for both indoor and outdoor construction applications.

Can I use these for leveling kitchen cabinets?

Absolutely; their consistent 2mm thickness makes them ideal for shimming cabinets to ensure they are perfectly level and plumb.

Do these come in different thicknesses?

This specific product variant is designed with a 2mm thickness. Other thicknesses may be available as separate product offerings.

Troubleshooting

Packer slips out of place during installation

Apply a small dab of construction adhesive to the packer before insertion to hold it in position.

Gap requires more than 2mm height

Stack multiple 2mm packers together to achieve the desired cumulative thickness.

Packer is too wide for the gap

While these are 28mm wide, if the space is significantly tighter, consider using a thinner shim or checking the framing alignment.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-volume bulk quantity ideal for professional sites
  • Consistent 2mm thickness ensures uniform alignment
  • Durable, non-compressible material provides stable support
  • Compact 28mm width fits standard framing profiles
  • Easy to stack for increased height requirements

Cons

  • Fixed 2mm thickness requires multiple units for larger gaps
  • Bulk quantity may exceed needs for minor household repairs
  • Does not feature self-adhesive backing for vertical installations

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve the best results, ensure the surface being leveled is clear of debris before inserting the packer. For vertical applications where the packer might slide, a small amount of heavy-duty construction adhesive or a light tack from a nail gun can be used to hold the units in position until the permanent fixture is installed. These packers are compatible with wood, metal, and composite framing systems. No special cleaning is required; however, they should be stored in a dry, cool location to maintain the integrity of the material and ensure they remain free from moisture-induced expansion or deformation.
