I have managed to lose 2 of the spacers on my 11-23 10 spd cassette while in storage. A friend has some 9 spd spacers - can I use these or is the width different ?
Thanks

It won't work. In a 9 speed cassette, Each cog is 1.75 mm thick. Campy uses 2.8 mm amber resin spacers and spaces their cogs 4.55 mm on center. That is to say that the distance from the center of one cog to the center of the adjoining cog, measured from the center of the first cog to the center of the second cog, is 4.55 mm. The inside diameter of each amber spacer is 35.4 mm.
A 10 Speed has the following, Each cog is 1.70 mm thick. Campy uses 2.42 mm alloy spacers and spaces their cogs 4.12 mm on center. That is to say that the distance from the center of one cog to the center of the adjoining cog, measured from the center of the first cog to the center of the second cog, is 4.12 mm. The inside diameter of each alloy spacer is 35.1 mm.

You need 2.4 mm spacers and the 9sp ones are 2.8 mm. You can substitute Wheels conversion Shimano
spacers that are 2.5 mm each. They are purple and need to be rotated around to get the inside id
open just a tad of you can cut the spacer. Your local shop can get the 2.4 mm spacers and may have
some saved from shot cassettes.
You might consider buying your next cassette and using the spacers from it.
