# 859899 Shim | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

## 🔧 Product Description

Genuine Volvo Penta shim from the Engine group, 3.20 mm thick and listed for 9 applications across the TMD, MS, TAMD and MD engine series. It follows 859885 at 3.23 mm in the graded run, and the next part number, 859902, is catalogued in inches at 0.123 inch rather than in millimetres. Compare the shim you have measured against the figure in the same units before ordering, and disregard weight entirely — it does not track thickness anywhere in this run.
