Product Description

87248 SHIM VOLVO

When it comes to heavy machinery performance, every small detail plays a critical role. The 87248 SHIM VOLVO is a precision-engineered spare part designed to maintain the correct spacing, alignment, and fitment within Volvo’s demanding rock drill and construction equipment systems. Manufactured with durability and accuracy in mind, this shim guarantees that the machinery operates smoothly even under the toughest working conditions.


Importance of the 87248 SHIM VOLVO

In the world of heavy machinery, a shim may appear as a simple, flat component, but its role is essential. The 87248 SHIM VOLVO ensures precise alignment between key parts, reduces vibration, prevents premature wear, and extends the lifespan of adjoining components. By maintaining proper tolerances, it helps minimize mechanical stress and ensures optimal load distribution during demanding operations.

This part is particularly critical in construction and mining environments where Volvo equipment is expected to perform under continuous heavy loads, abrasions, and shocks.


Technical Specifications of 87248 SHIM VOLVO

  • Part Number: 87248

  • Component Type: Shim (spacer/adjuster ring)

  • Material: High-strength steel, engineered for heavy-duty usage

  • Weight: Approx. 0.02 KG

  • Function: Provides spacing, alignment, and tolerance adjustments within Volvo heavy machinery assemblies

  • Durability: Resistant to high pressure, heat, and corrosion for extended service life


Compatibility – Volvo Models Using 87248 SHIM VOLVO

The 87248 SHIM VOLVO is widely compatible across multiple Volvo machines, including:

  • Volvo EC Series Excavators (EC210, EC240, EC290, EC300, EC360)

  • Volvo L Series Wheel Loaders (L90, L110, L120, L150, L180)

  • Volvo A Series Articulated Haulers (A25, A30, A35, A40)

  • Volvo FMX and FH Construction Trucks for reinforced mechanical applications

  • Volvo Rock Drill and Quarrying Equipment where precision spacing and vibration control are essential

By using the 87248 shim, these machines maintain tighter tolerances, which improves efficiency and reduces mechanical downtime.


Key Advantages of the 87248 SHIM VOLVO

1. Precision Alignment

The shim allows machinery components to remain in perfect alignment, reducing wear and ensuring consistent performance during heavy operations.

2. Extended Machinery Life

By lowering mechanical stress on adjacent parts, the 87248 SHIM VOLVO extends the overall working life of critical components.

3. Reduced Downtime

When machinery parts fit perfectly, the chances of breakdowns decrease significantly. This ensures operators avoid costly downtime.

4. Cost-Effective Maintenance

Replacing a shim is far less expensive than repairing misaligned or worn major assemblies. This makes the 87248 SHIM VOLVO a smart investment for long-term performance.


Applications in Heavy Machinery

The 87248 SHIM VOLVO is used in multiple heavy machinery functions, including:

  • Excavators: To maintain the correct play in swing mechanisms and structural joints.

  • Wheel Loaders: To adjust hub assemblies and prevent bearing misalignments.

  • Articulated Trucks: To ensure drivetrain stability during off-road hauling.

  • Mining Equipment: To withstand extreme vibration and shocks in rock-drilling operations.

Its versatility makes it one of the most critical adjustment parts across Volvo’s global heavy machinery fleet.
