Description

What does a valve adjusting shim do?

This 2.05 mm valve adjusting shim is a precision-ground component designed to maintain the exact valve clearance required for heavy commercial vehicle diesel engines. It functions as a spacer within the valve train, ensuring that the valve seats fully on every cycle by compensating for mechanical tolerances in the cylinder head assembly.

Compatible Volvo and Renault Trucks engines

This specific grade is compatible with Volvo engines including the D12, D12D, D12C, D16C, D10A models found in VNL, FM12, VHD, FH12, FH16, and NH12 trucks. It is also fitted to Renault Trucks Magnum engines equipped with the DXi12 engine series.

Installation and maintenance guidance

For reliable performance, technicians should ensure the shim seat is clean and lightly lubricated before installation. It is critical to measure each valve individually during maintenance to ensure the correct thickness is selected for each cylinder. Proper installation prevents compression loss and protects the valve seating face from premature wear.

Troubleshooting and selection

Always verify clearances after assembly and consult your authorized distributor for precise fitment verification.
