Since 1941, The Artus Corporation has completed over one million projects for over twenty thousand customers. We are proud of the vast array of clients we have served. It comes with being a shim and gasket manufacturer; the applications are nearly endless. Our partners include both international corporations and independent mom-and-pop. With each new client, we work hard to develop a lasting relationship and deliver quality shim, shim stock, and gasket solutions.

Most of our shim manufacturing is for small companies and individuals. However, Fortune 500 companies also rely on Artus shim and gasket products. Let’s share some of our most notable clients from automotive to tech and from mining to agriculture.

Major Industrial Manufacturers We Have Served

Artus shims, shim stock, and gaskets help position equipment for manufacturers, distributors, and automotive repair shops, big and small. Our timely deliveries and durable materials establish us as an expert shim and gasket manufacturer for industrial equipment.

Here are the major industrial manufacturers we have served:

The Timken Company takes advantage of our color-coded shim and shim stock products. They require plastic and metal shims of different thicknesses on their production floor. Identifying shim thickness by color saves time on measuring each shim individually. Our exacting precision and color-coded products are just two reasons Timken has remained one of our most loyal clients.

Other Companies We Have Served

Do you only need assistance with one project instead of a long-term partnership? No worries, we appreciate that type of collaboration as well. Here are a few notable companies that we have collaborated with on projects in the past.

Most of these clients used Artus shims for their prototyping and testing. They trusted the reliability of our shim products even when presenting their prototypes.

Why Our Relationships Last

From our partnerships, it’s clear that we build lasting relationships. Our mission is to provide clients with reliable shims they can trust, time after time. To do so, we offer an expert level of precision and color-coded plastic and aluminum. The color tells the thickness, reducing labor costs and speeding up production. Our manufacturing process has also become incredibly consistent and cost-effective. People stick with Artus for our competitive pricing, timely deliveries, quality shim products, and innovative color-coding.

Let’s Work Together

Though we have helped numerous billion-dollar companies throughout the years, we mostly manufacture shims for smaller clients. We serve no specific market and welcome every new order with personalized customer service and first-class consistency. We are honored to be the trusted shim and gasket manufacturer for both startups and Fortune 500 companies.
