DHS Equipment supplies this as a genuine OEM part, so you receive the exact component Multiquip specifies for this application.

Key Features

• Exact Material Specification — Brown poly construction delivers the correct compression behavior and dimensional stability required for precise end cap shimming.
• OEM-Sourced Accuracy — Genuine Multiquip part 12811 meets the original dimensional tolerance, ensuring the shim seats correctly against the input end cap without adjustment.
• Confirmed VCW1 Fitment — Validated for VCW1 series equipment; use part number 12811 to confirm compatibility before ordering.
• .010 Thickness Grade — At .010 inch, this shim provides the specific clearance correction needed to restore proper shaft alignment and end play at the input end cap.
• Maintains Drive Train Integrity — Correct shimming prevents excessive axial movement at the input shaft, protecting bearings and seals from accelerated wear.

A shim at the input end cap controls axial clearance — the small amount of side-to-side play allowed at the shaft where it enters the housing. Getting this clearance right is critical: too much play allows the shaft to move and wear surrounding components prematurely, while too little clearance creates binding and excess heat. The .010 Brown Poly designation identifies both the thickness and material of this specific shim, which is selected during assembly or service to dial in the correct end play for the input shaft. When this shim degrades, cracks, or is lost during a rebuild, replacing it with the correct Multiquip 12811 restores proper clearance and protects the surrounding drivetrain components.
