Description

This valve adjusting shim is a precision-ground component designed to maintain exact valve clearance within the engine's valve train. By providing a specific thickness between the rocker arm and the valve, it ensures the valve seats fully on every cycle, which is critical for maintaining engine compression and protecting the valve seating face from premature wear.

This specific shim is designed for use in Volvo FH16 vehicles equipped with D16C engines. It serves as an essential component for maintaining the mechanical timing and efficiency of the cylinder head assembly in these heavy commercial vehicle engines.

When replacing these shims, technicians should verify the required thickness to match manufacturer specifications precisely. Proper installation ensures that the valve lash remains within tolerance, preventing compression loss or engine noise. Always check the clearance before and after installation to ensure the engine operates within its intended parameters.

Consult your authorized distributor.
