Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the HY 358604 shim used for?
A: The HY 358604 is a 1.5 mm shim designed to adjust clearances and alignment on electric lift truck assemblies. Shims are used to compensate for wear, manufacturing tolerances, or to fine-tune mechanical fitment between components such as axles, brackets, and load-bearing surfaces.
Q: What are the dimensions and material of the HY 358604 shim?
A: The HY 358604 shim is 1.5 mm thick. For exact length, width, and material composition, verify your equipment model documentation or contact our technical team with your equipment serial number and component location.
Q: Which electric lift truck brands use the HY 358604 shim?
A: The HY 358604 shim is compatible with Hyster and similar equipment from major material handling manufacturers. Confirm compatibility with your specific model by comparing your current component dimensions and mounting configuration.
Q: How do I know if I need to replace the HY 358604 shim?
A: Replace this shim if you observe excessive play, misalignment, or abnormal noise at the component assembly where it is installed. Shims degrade over time due to compression and wear. If your equipment has been in service for extended periods, shim replacement during maintenance intervals is recommended.
Q: Can I use a different thickness shim instead of the HY 358604?
A: The 1.5 mm specification of the HY 358604 is designed for precise clearance requirements in your equipment. Using a different thickness may result in improper fit, increased wear, or safety issues. Always use the exact thickness specified in your equipment maintenance manual.
