Description
Shims are used in roller bearings to adjust the internal clearance or preload within the bearing for proper performance and to minimize friction and wear. They can be placed between the inner and outer bearing rings or between the rolling elements to control axial or radial clearance.
Attributes
- Ensures the bearing operates within specified tolerances
- Helps reduce vibration and noise generated by the bearing
Applications
The shim is used in the wheel bearing to adjust the internal clearance and ensure proper alignment.
