Face flatness matters as much as thickness — a shim that does not seal against its neighbour leaks damping. Shims are reused only if they are undamaged and flat; a coned shim is finished. Outer diameter sets the lever the oil works against, and thickness sets the resistance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eGenuine Service Part\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eÖhlins publishes dimensions for its service parts so a workshop can verify before it fits. This is an original Öhlins part, not an aftermarket equivalent — the tolerances are the ones the unit was assembled to. 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. For a full rebuild, the seal kit plus the wear parts is usually the sensible order.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eGetting the Number Right\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e00520-16 is the Öhlins number for this position — the same one printed in the service documentation. inner diameter 12 mm, outer diameter 16 mm, thickness 0.20 mm is what distinguishes this number from its neighbours in the range. Suspension technicians keep these in stock by size because a revalve means changing several at once. Two shims of the same thickness but different diameter give completely different damping.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitting and Setup Service\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eÖhlins recommends that its units are serviced by an authorised centre. We are one: rebuild, revalve and setup all happen in our own workshop.\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 00520-16\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 16 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eThickness:\u003c\/em\u003e 0.20 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":53648823582986,"sku":"00520-16","price":3.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7831\/0410\/files\/00520-16_7e3df3cb-afa6-4bc6-bc2a-bf7806b0d1aa.png?v=1788872046","url":"https:\/\/inter-pace.com\/en-pa\/products\/ohlins-shims-12-16-0-20-00520-16","provider":"Inter-Pace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
