1470384310 Cylinder Shim T=3.00 for Mitsubishi FB10-FB18 CA
Overview
The 1470384310 CYLINDER SHIM (T=3.00) is a precision spacing shim used in the cylinder assemblies of Mitsubishi electric counterbalance forklifts. With an exact 3.00 mm thickness, it sets correct clearance and alignment within the cylinder assembly, helping distribute loads evenly, reduce metal-to-metal wear and keep lift operation smooth and stable. Because cylinder shims are small but tolerance-critical components, replacing a worn, deformed or missing shim with the correct Mitsubishi-spec part is essential for reliable cylinder function and for protecting surrounding components from premature wear.
Compatibility
This cylinder shim is designed for the Mitsubishi FB10–FB18 CA and CA1 series of electric counterbalance forklifts — covering the FB10/14/15/18 CA series and the updated FB10/14/15/18 CA1 series, including models such as the FB10CA and FB10CA1.
Typical applications include:
- 1470384310 for FB10CA and related CA-series trucks
- The matching CA1 variants across the same capacity range
Before ordering, verify the part number 1470384310 against your forklift’s parts manual or the marking on your existing shim. Shim thickness (T=3.00) must match the specified clearance for your cylinder assembly to ensure correct fitment.
Quality and Reliability
This shim is manufactured to Mitsubishi specifications, delivering the consistent 3.00 mm thickness and material strength that FB series cylinder assemblies were engineered around. A quality shim resists compression and deformation under load, keeping cylinder clearances stable over thousands of lift cycles. Fitting the correct thickness also helps prevent play, uneven loading and accelerated wear on cylinder components, seals and adjacent hardware — reducing the risk of more costly downtime later.
Installation and Maintenance Tips
- Depressurize the hydraulic system and safely support the mast before working on the cylinder, following the service manual for your model.
- Clean all mating surfaces thoroughly; dirt trapped under a shim ruins the accuracy of the clearance setting.
- Measure the old shim and the available clearance with a micrometer to confirm that 3.00 mm is the correct replacement thickness.
- Install the shim flat and fully seated, then reassemble and torque fasteners to the specified values in the correct sequence.
- After reassembly, cycle the lift cylinders and check for smooth travel, correct alignment and any signs of leakage or unusual noise.
- During scheduled service, inspect shims for scoring, corrosion or deformation and replace them in sets where required.
