Multiquip 17416 Shim Pack Vacuum Pump Backlash

The Multiquip 17416 Shim Pack Vacuum Pump Backlash is a genuine OEM component designed for the MP200-Series masonry saw. Sourced directly from Multiquip, this shim pack delivers the exact thickness tolerancing required to set correct gear mesh and eliminate excessive play in the vacuum pump drive. Confirm your model against the MP200-Series fitment to ensure a proper service match before installation.

Key Features

• Exact Backlash Control — Precision-ground shims allow technicians to dial in the correct vacuum pump gear clearance, preventing premature wear on mating components.
• Genuine OEM Construction — Manufactured to Multiquip's original material and thickness specifications, so the shim stack behaves exactly as engineered for vacuum pump drive geometry.
• MP200-Series Compatibility — Designed specifically for Multiquip MP200-Series masonry saws, matching the original drive assembly dimensions without reworking the housing or shaft.
• Protects Pump Drive Longevity — Correct backlash settings reduce gear shock loading and heat buildup, extending the service life of the vacuum pump and its drive train.
• Supports Accurate Service Intervals — Including this shim pack in scheduled vacuum pump maintenance restores drive tolerances to as-built condition, keeping pump output consistent cut after cut.

The vacuum pump backlash shim pack controls the amount of clearance — known as backlash — between the gears that drive the vacuum pump on the masonry saw. Too much clearance causes gear slap, vibration, and accelerated wear on both the pump and its drive components; too little causes binding that can overheat or seize the pump entirely. When performing a vacuum pump service or replacement, installing the correctly sized shim pack from this set restores the manufacturer's specified gear mesh, ensuring the pump produces consistent vacuum pressure for blade cooling and dust suppression throughout its service life.
