Description

What does a valve adjusting shim do?

This 2.50 mm valve adjusting shim is a precision-ground component designed to maintain exact valve clearance within heavy commercial vehicle diesel engines. By sitting between the rocker arm or cam follower and the valve, it compensates for wear to ensure the valve seats fully during every combustion cycle, preventing compression loss and protecting the valve seating face.

Engine compatibility and fitment

This specific thickness is compatible with several Volvo engine series, including the D12C, D12D, D16C, and D10A found in models like the FH16, FM12, NH12, FM10, VHD, and VNL. It is also suitable for Renault Trucks Magnum engines equipped with the DXi12 series. Always verify fitment by cross-referencing the thickness and diameter against the existing component or engine specifications.

Installation and maintenance

To ensure reliable operation, technicians should perform adjustments according to the manufacturer's specified temperature conditions. It is essential to check for surface pitting or bluing on the removed shim to prevent uneven wear or side loading on the valve train components. Consult your authorized distributor for more information.

Selection guidance

A valve adjusting shim is a precision-ground steel spacer that brings valve clearance in heavy commercial vehicle diesel engines to the tolerance set by the manufacturer.

OE cross-reference

1300 05 011 (Valve Adjusting Shim Engine Valve) is the equivalent of the Volvo OE number. This part directly replaces Volvo OE number 1547977.
