Precision shims for tight tolerances

Arrowmax AM-13SS0004 5x8x0.3mm shims are small, accurate spacers intended to help you achieve exact clearances on RC models. Their thin, consistent profile makes them ideal for careful setup work.

Why use thin shims

These shims allow incremental adjustments to suspension, linkages, and gear meshes without changing major parts. They help you remove slop and keep moving components aligned under load.

Handy for workshop and track

The 10-piece AM-13SS0004 pack is a convenient addition to any toolkit, useful for both planned setups and quick on-the-spot fixes. They suit a broad range of model types where small tolerances matter.

Do these shims affect bearing preload?

A 0.3mm shim can change bearing preload if placed next to the bearing race. Fit carefully and test rotation after adjusting to ensure you have the correct preload.

Can shims reduce drivetrain wear?

By helping you achieve proper alignment and minimal backlash, shims can reduce uneven wear in gears and linkages. They are part of regular maintenance and setup best practices.
