Fits the basic Rockler fence just fine, works exactly as advertised. Perhaps a little pricey for the 6 pieces of plastic you get, but does the job.

When I first bought them I didn’t think I would be using them all that much, well, I was wrong, I use them a lot.

Just FYI: these shims do not fit the Rockler Deluxe Router Fence (30136). The slots don't line up.

Somewhat difficult to remove, otherwise a very affordable approach to making my new Rockler Router table more versatile. I priced out DIY methods using various materials and couldn't beat the price or out-of-the-box ease of use.

A very cost effective add-on for my new Rockler router table. These shims are durable and makes for an efficient set-up in order to joint a new edge. The various thicknesses provide an excellent method for setting just the right amount of cut. A great buy!

I found it much easier to set up with shims by placing the thickness you desire behind the outfeed fence. Then place the same thickness either in front of or behind the infeed fence. Then use a straight edge to set the fence so the straight edge just touches the cutter blade. Test with scrap to make certain you are just barely touching the work piece. Then remove the shims on the infeed fence. You will then remove exactly the thickness of material equal to the shims behind the outfeed fence.
I note one possible improvement which could be made on the shims. When dropped behind the fence they are somewhat difficult to remove. If they were longer, they would stick out from behind the end of the fence as far as the end of the metal angle mounting bar. They could then be removed with ease. I tested this with some handmade shims. Works great!

I needed the jointing shims for my Rockler router table I also found that they work well for shimming my backstop on miter saw.

"I ordered a replacement part for a desk at home. It is actually better quality than the original and fit perfectly! I called to make sure the package had the number of parts I needed prior to placing my online order. The folks were very helpful and the part came within a few days! I will definitely use them in the future! "
