Ball bearing Shims 7x10x0.2mm, pack of 10

Preloading your ball bearing system eliminates the extra clearance between the inner race and outer race of the bearing, allowing for smoother mechanical operation. Excessive or insufficient preload, however, can cause more damage than good.

Inner race and outer race bearing shims come in varying thicknesses to help you achieve the right amount of axial preload for your bearings. When installed correctly, bearings shaft shims help prevent misalignment, reduce noise and vibration, improve system rigidity, and extend bearing life. A versatile design also allows use as shaft spacers to align and adjust the spacing between two components.
