It's double the thickness you need. Heat press sheets are thinner.

Did you manage to find it Bojan?
I needed 0.5mm and think I got it from a seller on eBay but can't remember. I do know I used it for shimming my EQ5 PRO when I re-engineered it (I replaced the roller bearing with a tapered roller bearing), it had PET plastic shims and they would bind.
I did however ruin a very expensive engineering drawing compass using it to cut the precise outer and inner rings. I wasn't happy about that and I can not get the part (some German brand I can not remember, I bought the big set with pens and everything for previous studies (mechanical engineering)).
