Description

This precision-ground spacer is engineered to bring valve clearance in heavy commercial vehicle diesel engines back to the manufacturer's specified tolerance. It functions as a critical component within the valve train, situated between the rocker arm or cam follower and the valve stem to ensure the valve seats fully during every cycle.

This specific 2.25 mm shim is compatible with Volvo FH12, FM12, and NH12 engines featuring D12C and D12D configurations, as well as Renault Trucks Magnum with DXi12 engines. It is also fitted to Volvo VNL, VHD, and FH16 models utilizing D12 and D16C engine series.

For professional workshop technicians, it is essential to measure each valve individually during adjustment intervals to ensure the correct thickness is applied. When installing, ensure the shim seat is clean and lightly lubricated to prevent scoring on the contact surfaces during initial start-up.

Maintaining correct valve clearance is vital to prevent compression loss and premature wear of the valve seating face. Consult your authorized distributor to check the compatibility list.
