Two shims of the same thickness but different diameter give completely different damping. Öhlins stamps and grinds its shims to tolerances a general-purpose washer never holds. Suspension technicians keep these in stock by size because a revalve means changing several at once.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eOriginal Öhlins Part\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eÖhlins supports units that are decades old, which is why the spare parts list runs to thousands of numbers. Öhlins is one of the few suspension makers that still supplies every position in the exploded view as a single part. Öhlins numbers do not follow a logic you can guess — always read them from the documentation. Send us the model and serial number of your unit and we will confirm the position before you order.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eGetting the Number Right\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOrder under 00538-28. Where several sizes share a description, only the number separates them. Öhlins states inner diameter 12 mm, outer diameter 28 mm, thickness 0.38 mm for this number, and those figures are the deciding ones. A coned or marked shim is finished — it no longer seals against its neighbour. Outer diameter sets the lever the oil works against, and thickness sets the resistance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitting and Setup Service\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFitting service parts means opening a pressurised unit. As an authorised Öhlins service centre we do that here, with the right tools and a dyno check afterwards — just ask.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eBrand:\u003c\/em\u003e Öhlins\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003ePart Number:\u003c\/em\u003e 00538-28\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eCategory:\u003c\/em\u003e Shims\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eInner Diameter:\u003c\/em\u003e 12 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eOuter Diameter:\u003c\/em\u003e 28 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eThickness:\u003c\/em\u003e 0.38 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eCountry of Origin:\u003c\/em\u003e Sweden\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Öhlins","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53648848027914,"sku":"00538-28","price":1.76,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7831\/0410\/files\/00538-28_ff6485d7-54ae-4d68-93c2-062fc17be730.png?v=1788872190","url":"https:\/\/inter-pace.com\/en-ht\/products\/ohlins-shims-12-28-0-38-00538-28","provider":"Inter-Pace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
