Description
What does a valve adjusting shim do?
This valve adjusting shim is a precision-ground component designed to bring valve clearance in heavy commercial vehicle diesel engines to the exact tolerance required by the manufacturer. It functions within the valve train to ensure the valve seats fully on every cycle, preventing compression loss and protecting the valve seating face from premature wear.Compatible vehicles and engines
This specific 3.70 mm shim is compatible with various Volvo models including the FM12, NH12, FH12, FH16, VHD, and VNL, as well as Renault Trucks Magnum engines. It is specifically designed for use with D12D, D12C, D16C, D12, D10A, and DXi12 engine series to ensure precise mechanical timing.Installation and maintenance
When performing maintenance, technicians should ensure the shim seat is clean and lightly lubricated before assembly to prevent scoring during the first start-up. It is critical to measure each valve individually during adjustment to ensure the correct grade is selected for each specific cylinder head requirement.Maintenance and selection guidance
Regularly checking valve clearances according to manufacturer intervals helps prevent excessive wear on contact surfaces. Using high-strength components like this ensures the clearance does not drift out of specification due to material deformation under high pressure.OE cross-reference
1300 05 035 (Valve Adjusting Shim Engine Valve) is the equivalent of the Volvo OE number. This part directly replaces Volvo OE number 1677363.Other OEMs

FAQ
What is the function of a valve adjusting shim?
It is a precision-ground spacer that adjusts the clearance between the rocker arm or cam follower and the valve stem to ensure complete seating and optimal combustion.
Which engines are these shims compatible with?
These shims are compatible with Volvo engines like the D12, D16, and D10 series, as well as Renault Trucks DXi12 engines used in heavy commercial vehicles.
How should I install a new valve adjusting shim?
The shim seat must be perfectly clean and lightly lubricated before installation to prevent surface scoring when the engine reaches operating temperature.
Can I grind a shim to adjust the clearance?
No, you should never grind a shim as it removes the hardened layer and shortens its service life; always replace with a ready-made shim of the correct thickness.
What are the OE reference numbers of this part?
1300 05 035 directly replaces Volvo OE number 1677363.
