Supertech Cam Follower Shim 8mm Dia 1.80mm Thick

Starting with a precise 1.80mm thickness, this Supertech cam follower shim is made to exact specifications for your engine's valve train. When you're rebuilding an engine or fine-tuning valve lash, having access to shims with consistent dimensions is critical for achieving proper clearances. This shim is designed to fit within the valve train system, working with the cam follower to ensure the correct gap is maintained between the cam lobe and the valve stem.

Supertech uses solid materials in their valve train components, and these shims are no different. The 8mm diameter ensures it mates properly with the corresponding cam follower. Getting the valve clearances right is important for engine performance and longevity, as incorrect gaps can lead to noise, poor combustion, or even damage over time. Having a range of shim thicknesses available, like this 1.80mm option, allows for precise adjustments during assembly.
