# 859881 Shim | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

## 🔧 Product Description

Genuine Volvo Penta shim from the Engine group, 3.32 mm thick and listed for 9 applications across the TMD, MS, TAMD and MD engine series. In the graded run listed here it falls between 859880 at 3.34 mm and 859882 at 3.30 mm, a 0.02 mm step either side. Because the part numbers ascend as the thickness falls across this run, the number itself is a reliable guide to where a step sits; the published weights are not, and must not be used to identify a shim.
