I'm creating a simple filter form. I can't seem to figure out how to filter by WooCommerce product dimensions, located in the Shipping tab and accessible in php with $product->get_dimensions().

It looks like only three fields are available. Must I duplicate the dimensions as custom fields onto the Product Post to make them filterable?

Hello,

The Woocommerce plugin is using hidden custom fields to store the product dimensions values:
_width
_height
_length

You can reveal them in Views UI by this:
Dashboard-> Toolset-> Settings-> Front-end Content
in section "Hidden custom fields", click button "Select custom fields", enable above three custom fields, and test again.
