SHIM (Yale YT0247097)

A worn shim can disrupt the precise spacing required between mating components. The aftermarket replacement part references Yale as the OE maker and cross-references part number YT0247097. A shim is a thin, flat component used to fill gaps or adjust clearance between assembled parts. Its plain mechanical function is to take up slack and maintain consistent alignment under load. When a shim deteriorates or is omitted, excessive play can lead to accelerated wear on adjacent surfaces. Keeping a shim in sound condition helps preserve the intended fit and reduce vibration during operation. Verify the serial number or application, then call (562) 693-7748.
