A Hobart 00-118159-00002 Shim/Washer maintains precise spacing between joined parts for stable alignment and consistent performance.
The shim/washer maintains precise spacing and alignment between mating components so the equipment can operate with the intended fit and tolerances. Its 0.005-inch construction matters because that exact thickness supports consistent load distribution, minimizes unwanted movement and preserves proper assembly geometry.
The shim/washer might be wearing out if the equipment begins showing misalignment, uneven movement, unusual vibration or inconsistent performance caused by changing component spacing. Physical signs can include visible wear, deformation, flattening or corrosion and you might notice environmental signs such as increased noise, rubbing or looseness around the assembly.
