The Multiquip 04096500 is a genuine OEM Shim 0.4MM designed for QP3TZ and QP2TZ trash pumps as well as MVH308DZ and MVH408DZ heavy-duty reversible plate compactors. As a direct Multiquip OEM component, this shim is manufactured to the precise thickness tolerance required to maintain correct mechanical clearances within the equipment. Confirm your model against the fitment list below before ordering to ensure an exact match for your machine.
Key Features
- Precision-Ground Thickness: — Manufactured to an exact 0.4MM specification, ensuring the critical mechanical clearances that shims are designed to control are maintained accurately across supported models.
- Genuine OEM Component: — Sourced directly from Multiquip, this shim meets the same dimensional and material standards as the part originally installed on the machine — no guesswork on tolerances.
- Broad Cross-Family Fitment: — Compatible with QP3TZ and QP2TZ trash pumps and MVH308DZ and MVH408DZ reversible plate compactors, making it a useful stocking item for mixed Multiquip fleets.
- Maintains Correct Assembly Alignment: — A shim at the wrong thickness — or a worn original — can cause premature bearing wear, shaft misalignment, or excessive vibration. The correct 04096500 shim keeps assemblies running true.
- Drop-In Service Part: — Sized to fit the original shim position without machining or adjustment, supporting straightforward installation during scheduled maintenance or component rebuilds.
A shim is a thin, precisely dimensioned spacer used to fill gaps, set clearances, or align components within a mechanical assembly. In equipment such as trash pumps and plate compactors, shims play a quiet but critical role — they ensure that rotating or sliding parts maintain the correct positional relationship to one another. When a shim is worn down, crushed, or the wrong thickness, it can cause uneven load distribution, accelerated wear on adjacent components, or loss of operational efficiency. Replacing a shim like the Multiquip 04096500 during a rebuild or service interval restores those clearances to specification and protects the longevity of surrounding parts.
