SHIM (CAT CT1051268)

A worn shim can cause excessive clearance in a mechanical assembly, leading to premature component wear or noise. This aftermarket replacement part references the CAT catalog and carries the cross-reference number CT1051268. The shim functions as a thin spacer used to adjust the gap between two mating surfaces. Over time, a missing or compressed shim may allow metal-to-metal contact, resulting in accelerated damage to adjacent parts. Keeping a shim in proper condition helps maintain the intended alignment and load distribution within the assembly. The item ships at approximately 0.034 POUNDS. Verify the serial number or application, then call (562) 693-7748.
