The Spellbinders Mylar Shim (F) White 2-Pack (PL-128) is a specialised "gap-filler" tool designed for the Universal Plate System. These thin, flexible white sheets are the smart solution for those moments when your die-cutting or embossing sandwich is just a fraction of a millimetre too loose. By adding one or both shims into your stack, you provide the extra micro-pressure needed to achieve a 100% clean cut on intricate dies or a deep, crisp impression on detailed embossing folders.
Key Features:
Precision Pressure Control: These are smart spacers designed to be used when a standard sandwich isn't quite enough. They fill the tiny air gaps between plates, ensuring the rollers of your Platinum or Platinum 6 apply even pressure across the entire design.
Extended Universal Length: Measuring 9.625" x 6.06", these shims are perfectly sized to match the rest of the Universal Plate System. They provide full-length support for Slimline (8.5") dies and folders, preventing incomplete cuts at the top or bottom of long projects.
Variable Sandwiching: Because they come in a 2-pack, you have the smart flexibility to use a single shim for a subtle boost or both shims together for stubborn, extra-thick cardstock or highly detailed "lace" dies.
Levelling Technology: Beyond just adding pressure, these shims are used to "level" a sandwich. If you notice one side of your die isn't cutting as well as the other, placing a shim specifically under that area can balance the machine's output.
Durable Mylar Material: Made from high-quality, tear-resistant Mylar, these shims are designed to withstand hundreds of passes through your manual machine without losing their precise thickness.
