5mm Thick Cowling Mounting Shim Caterpillar 6122035

The Cowling Mounting Shim is a flat spacer used to fine-tune the fit and elevation of a cowling panel relative to adjacent structural elements. Positioned between the cowling and its mounting surface, this shim compensates for manufacturing variances, ensures proper alignment, and distributes clamping forces evenly. Its use helps eliminate gaps, reduce vibration, and maintain uniform cowling surface positioning. This ensures that connected panels remain stable, flush, and securely attached.Attributes:• Simple to install and remove if needed.• Non-deforming under torque loads.• Supports thermal expansion without deformation.Applications: The Cowling Mounting Shim sets the cowling's mounting height and alignment relative to nearby structures, reducing vibration and ensuring flush installation.
