This Serpent SER110475 shim is identified by the 4x8x0.3 marking and functions as a thin spacing washer for RC-scale assemblies. It is intended for fine positional adjustments where small clearances affect drivetrain, steering linkages, or suspension geometry.
Shims like this are used to correct lateral play, set endplay on shafts, and create consistent stack heights when assembling gearboxes or steering components. Because the item is described by its dimension code, confirm that 4x8x0.3 matches the part envelope required by your chassis before fitting.
Installation is straightforward: slide the shim into the location that needs reduced clearance, test movement after each increment, and avoid over-constraining bearings or link pivots. Thin shims can be stacked to achieve intermediate thicknesses, but always re-check preload and free movement after stacking.
Handle and store shims flat to avoid bending, and keep them separate from dissimilar hardware to prevent mixing sizes during maintenance. For model-specific fitment, refer to the vehicle's parts diagram or official replacement list rather than assuming compatibility from appearance alone.
