This .005-inch thick shim fits in the picker bar bottom section, helping you dial in the precise spacing your spindles need for smooth, efficient operation. It’s one of those small parts that makes a big difference in how your picker performs when the cotton’s ready.
What You’re Getting
- Precision .005-inch thickness for fine-tuning picker bar assembly spacing
- Made specifically for John Deere cotton picker applications
- Quality construction that won’t compress or distort under operating loads
- Direct fit replacement that works with existing hardware
Built for Cotton Picking Operations
This shim works in John Deere cotton picker bottom bar assemblies where proper spindle spacing is critical for clean cotton removal. Whether you’re running older machines that need adjustment after years of use or fine-tuning a rebuilt picker bar, this precision shim helps maintain the tight tolerances cotton picking demands.
Made to Last
Cotton picking puts constant stress on every component, and spacing shims need to hold their thickness under pressure and vibration. This shim is manufactured to maintain its .005-inch dimension throughout the picking season, ensuring your adjustments stay put when the workload gets heavy.
Installation Notes
Use these shims during picker bar rebuilds or when adjusting spindle spacing for optimal performance. Stack multiple shims if you need more than .005 inches of adjustment, but always check your service manual for proper spacing specifications. A good tip is to measure your existing setup before disassembly so you know exactly what spacing worked.
