Anheuser-Busch sells universal shim material in 0.0047” thickness. The material comes in cylindrical shapes, so you’ll need tin snips to cut it into the shape of the main caps.  You’ll probably want to buy a pack of six or twenty-four, so you’ll have enough. If you’re doing the work outside on a hot day, this is definitely the material you’ll want to use.   

If you want brass material in different thicknesses, you can call McMaster-Carr, but the AB material works perfectly fine.

This is what you need to get the job done:
