If you are servicing any of the MQ600 series units listed above, 511838 is the correct part to restore your pump to proper operating clearance.
Key Features
- Exact OEM Thickness Tolerance — Manufactured to the precise 0.5 MM specification, ensuring correct component spacing and alignment within the pump housing.
- Genuine Multiquip OEM Part — Factory-original construction means this shim meets the same material and dimensional standards as the part that left the production line.
- Confirmed MQ600 Series Fitment — Verified compatibility with MQ600TD80-TLRB, MQ600TD80-TLRP, MQ600H, MQ600HTB, and MQ600HTP trash pumps.
- Drop-In Installation — Matches the original shim profile for straightforward installation during routine service or pump rebuilds without additional machining.
- Protects Pump Longevity — Correct base clearance prevents uneven wear on rotating components, helping the pump maintain flow performance and avoid premature failure.
A base shim is a precision spacer used to set and maintain the correct clearance between mating components within the pump assembly. In a trash pump, maintaining exact tolerances at the base is critical — even a small deviation in spacing can cause misalignment of the impeller or shaft, leading to vibration, accelerated wear, and loss of pumping efficiency. When a shim is worn, damaged, or replaced with an incorrect thickness, the assembly cannot hold proper clearance, which shortens the service life of surrounding components and ultimately compromises pump output.
