What It Is

Dimensionally this is 6 mm, 13 mm, 0.20 mm, which is how it is told apart from the rest of the range. Revalving means changing the stack, not the piston — that is why shims are sold singly. Outer diameter sets the lever the oil works against, and thickness sets the resistance. Öhlins stamps and grinds its shims to tolerances a general-purpose washer never holds.

Original Öhlins Part

Öhlins is one of the few suspension makers that still supplies every position in the exploded view as a single part. Rebuilding to specification only works if the parts are to specification — that starts here. For a full rebuild, the seal kit plus the wear parts is usually the sensible order. The Öhlins exploded view names the number for each position; we can look it up if you do not have it.

How to Be Sure It Fits

Öhlins identifies this position by the number 01420-13 in the exploded view for the unit it belongs to. Öhlins states inner diameter 6 mm, outer diameter 13 mm, thickness 0.20 mm for this number, and those figures are the deciding ones. A worn or bent shim shows up as damping that has quietly drifted from the setting sheet. Changing one shim in a stack alters the damping curve measurably; that is why Öhlins sells them individually rather than only as sets.

Fitting and Setup Service

A damper rebuild is workshop work: it needs the unit dismantled, the shim stack rebuilt in the correct order and the gas charge reset. We are an authorised Öhlins service centre and do exactly that in house — send us the unit or ask us to fit the part with your order.
