ABSTRACT:
A shipping wedge is provided for protecting articles during storage or shipment. The wedge is substantially trapezoidal in configuration and includes a slot extending from the top surface towards the bottom thereof. The slot is used for positioning the wedge with respect to a brace or other planar member and serves as a stop for limiting the extent to which the wedge may be inserted into a space. The shipping wedge is particularly applicable for protecting the apron of a bathtub from damage due to compression forces to which it may be subjected. If the apron is connected to the bathtub by means of a brace, the wedge is inserted such that the slot receives the brace and eventually engages it when the wedge has been fully inserted.
