Shims for 556mm Blades

[lucas251]

I need the shims for in between the E5 blade grips and 556mm blades, they are said to have a 4mm bolt hole, 1mm thick and 22mm in outside diameter.   I don't remember if these came in the kit but I cannot find them now if they did.  I need a specific part number or link to them because I have not been able to find such an animal.

Blade washers/shims don't come in the kit.. They come with Rail Blades.. Maybe other brand blades as well, not sure tho.. I use Rails. I've got some spares.. If u have trouble getting some drop me a PM.

Hey, thanks for the reply.  I assume you're talking about the 1mm thick aluminum washers.  It makes sense now.  I got some Rail 556's and remember wondering why there wasn't any shims of any sort, at the time I was thinking of the thin black ones.  I can see the spot in the packaging where the shims are supposed to go. 

I found SAB 1mm x 22mm shims but they are for a 5mm bolt.  It looks like SwitchBlades and SAB blades come with 1mm thick shims but their blades use 5mm bolt holes.  If you could send my some shims when you get around to it, that would be much appreciated.  I'll e-mail you through the user profile, and PayPal you $5 bucks for your time.

Got the shims maybe a week ago. Getting close to completing the build.  I'll post some pictures when it's done.  Thanks Clay
