Shim 140 x 0.76
Detroit Diesel

A precision shim sized 140 by 0.76, this component serves as a small but critical spacing element used to achieve accurate alignment between mating components in the engine or accessory assemblies. The 140 mm length provides sufficient coverage for alignment across extended mounting surfaces, while the 0.76 mm thickness allows fine-tuning of gaps to meet exact torque and seal requirements. Shims like this are essential during assembly or rework when tolerances demand careful offsetting to prevent binding, optimize belt or gear alignment, and ensure proper seating of flanges or housings. In practice, it supports minimizing vibration-induced wear, reducing seal distortion, and ensuring consistent preload on fasteners after heat cycles. While it belongs to the broad shim family, its specific dimensions tailor it to particular alignment tasks in Detroit Diesel platforms, aligning with category 52938 workflows and enabling precise, repeatable installations during maintenance or rebuilds. Cross references are not listed for this shim, emphasizing its targeted fitment for niche alignment needs.
