There are situations, where it is necessary to increase space between star hub and brake drum, so the latter clears the spoke flange. These shims can be used to achieve this.
Attention! Possible assembly fault and brake drum failure.
Some brake drum/wheel hub combinations require one or more spacer shims (front W&W 27-748, rear 27-746) to prevent them from touching the hub’s spoke rim. The brake drum must not touch the hub’s spoke flange. This might result in the drum breaking when tightening lug bolts.
