865530 Shim | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

🔧 Product Description

Genuine Volvo Penta shim, 0.38 mm thick, from the Cooling System group, listed for 8 applications on TAMD series engines. It is the thickest of the four graded shims in this set, above 865529 at 0.305 mm, 865528 at 0.25 mm and 865527 at 0.127 mm. All four carry the same published 0.001 kg, so the published weights are of no use in telling them apart — order by the stamped or measured thickness.
