Outer diameter sets the lever the oil works against; thickness sets how hard it resists. A stack combines several diameters so the curve changes progressively rather than in steps. A coned or marked shim is finished — it no longer seals against its neighbour.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eOriginal Öhlins Part\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eÖhlins numbers every position so a workshop can order precisely what it needs, not a whole assembly. Öhlins is one of the few suspension makers that still supplies every position in the exploded view as a single part. Where a number has been superseded, Öhlins states the replacement — we pass that on. If you are unsure which number your unit takes, send us the model and serial number of the damper and we will look it up.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow to Be Sure It Fits\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf the unit is already open, compare the dimensions below with the part in your hand before ordering 00188-17. The published dimensions are inner diameter 8 mm, outer diameter 17 mm, thickness 0.30 mm — measure the old part against them if you are unsure. Öhlins grinds shims to a flatness tolerance because the faces have to seal against each other. A shim is a thin steel washer, and a stack of them is what actually generates damping in an Öhlins unit — the oil has to bend them out of the way to pass.\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 00188-17\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 8 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eOuter Diameter:\u003c\/em\u003e 17 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eThickness:\u003c\/em\u003e 0.30 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":53648665968906,"sku":"00188-17","price":400.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7831\/0410\/files\/00188-17_06ce8a99-898b-4590-b6fe-f9f68e0f0bc1.png?v=1788871413","url":"https:\/\/inter-pace.com\/en-jp\/products\/ohlins-shims-8-17-0-30-00188-17","provider":"Inter-Pace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
