Metal shims are extensively used in automotive manufacturing. They are used in applications ranging from brake systems to engine components. With the resurgence of automotive sales and production levels after the economic downturn in the first two quarters of 2022 due to the pandemic and the war in Ukraine, there has been a corresponding increase in demand for metal shims in the U.S.

According to the Federal Reserve Economic Data (Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis), the total vehicle sales in the country rose from 14.2 million units in 2022 to 16.0 million units in 2023. Additionally, the presence of stringent regulatory standards for greenhouse gas emissions further bolsters the demand for high-quality metal shims that can withstand rigorous operational conditions and contribute to the development of lightweight vehicles with enhanced fuel efficiency.
