Have you tried a coffee can? Can't remember the thickness but I used a strip cut from an Azera can on a seatpost and it's still holding several years later. Might be thereabouts.

Beer or Coke can should work, done it many times before!

shim for a 25.4 to 26.2 seatpost
I've rolled them from shim stock before, saves having to make multiple layers of soda can, which these days can be under 0.1mm thick. This for £5 is the thickness you need for your part
