SHIM (CAT CT0397167)

CT0397167: A worn shim can allow excessive clearance between mating components, leading to accelerated wear or misalignment. The shim is a thin, flat spacer used to adjust the gap or alignment between two parts in a mechanical assembly. Its plain mechanical function is to occupy space and maintain a precise distance between surfaces. If the shim deteriorates or is omitted, the resulting looseness may cause vibration, noise, or uneven load distribution. This aftermarket replacement part references the OE maker CAT and cross-references part number CT0397167. The item ships at approximately 0.012 pounds. Verify the serial number or application, then call (562) 693-7748.
