Gli spessori di regolazione dell'altezza AMC Mecanocaucho® Shim vengono utilizzati per il livellamento dei motori marini. Sono costituiti da una lamiera di acciaio anticorrosivo, in modo da resistere agli ambienti marini.
These shims avoid using the traditional height adjusting studs. The traditional levelling systems are subjected to cyclic bending moments and are exposed to eventual ruptures.
As a result of it most of the marine certification companies do not recommend to use height adjusting studs. Reference is made to DET NORSKE VERITAS (DNV) rules for ships / high speed craft –issue January 2016, Pt.4 Ch3 Sec.1 F202. This requirement is referred to rigid mounting, but is considered applicable to this topic.
