Overview
With a 6mm bore, an 8mm outside diameter and a 0.2mm thickness, these Tekno RC shims are the small, narrow spacers you use when there is barely any room to work with. The tight outside diameter lets them sit against a bearing or shoulder without interfering with anything around it.
Shims like these are a setup tool, not just filler. Fit one and an assembly that felt loose suddenly feels tight and precise, which is exactly the difference between a car that rebuilds the same way every time and one that always feels slightly different. The bag holds ten.
