Suspension technicians keep these in stock by size because a revalve means changing several at once. A coned or marked shim is finished — it no longer seals against its neighbour. Shims are reused only if they are undamaged and flat; a coned shim is finished.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eGenuine Service Part\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eÖhlins keeps service parts available for units long after they leave the current price list. Buying the individual part rather than a complete assembly is what makes servicing an Öhlins unit worthwhile. The Öhlins exploded view names the number for each position; we can look it up if you do not have it. 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\u003eIf the unit is already open, compare the dimensions below with the part in your hand before ordering 00185-12. inner diameter 8 mm, outer diameter 12 mm, thickness 0.15 mm is what distinguishes this number from its neighbours in the range. Revalving means changing the stack, which is why Öhlins sells shims individually. 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\u003eA 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.\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 00185-12\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 12 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eThickness:\u003c\/em\u003e 0.15 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":53646858453258,"sku":"00185-12","price":2.1,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/7831\/0410\/files\/00185-12_a5c679ec-4a85-4c1b-8d0f-6512a6d008f0.png?v=1788868786","url":"https:\/\/inter-pace.com\/products\/ohlins-shims-8-12-0-15-00185-12","provider":"Inter-Pace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
