A Spacer creates a precise distance or gap between two objects. The spacer is designed to fit over fasteners. The size and shape of a steel spacer can vary depending on its intended use, but they are typically manufactured to very tight tolerance to ensure accurate spacing between components. Spacers can be coated or heat treated to enhance their properties. Spacers are made from a variety of materials, including metal, plastic, and rubber. They come in a range of sizes and thicknesses.
