Patent attributes
A wide-format tile shim includes a shim body, a plurality of length grooves, a plurality of width grooves, and a plurality of openings. The plurality of length grooves is evenly distributed along the shim body and traverses into the shim body. The plurality of width grooves is evenly distributed across the shim body and traverses into the shim body. Each of the plurality of length grooves is positioned perpendicular to each of the plurality of width grooves as the plurality of openings traverses from a front surface of the shim body to a rear surface of the shim body. Each of the plurality of opening is positioned adjacent to an intersecting length groove from the plurality of length grooves and an intersecting width groove from the plurality of width grooves thus evenly spacing the plurality of opening within the shim body.
