Multiquip 5156190020 Shim

The Multiquip 5156190020 Shim is a genuine OEM component designed for DCA-series ultra-silent diesel generators, including the DCA25SSI, DCA25SSIU, DCA25SSAI, DCA45SSIU2, DCA60SSAI, and DCA60SSI2. As an authorized Multiquip source, DHS Equipment supplies this part to ensure your generator is restored to factory tolerances with a component built to the original engineering specification. Confirm your model code against the fitment list to verify compatibility before ordering.

Key Features

• Precision Tolerance Control — Manufactured to the exact thickness specification required to maintain correct mechanical clearances inside your DCA-series generator.
• Genuine OEM Part — Sourced directly through Multiquip, carrying the same part number — 5156190020 — used in original assembly, so there is no guesswork on fitment.
• Broad DCA-Series Compatibility — Fits DCA25SSI, DCA25SSIU, DCA25SSAI, DCA45SSIU2, DCA60SSAI, DCA60SSI2, and select GEER and FEMA configuration variants.
• Restores Proper Mechanical Alignment — A worn or missing shim allows components to shift out of position, leading to uneven load distribution, accelerated wear, and potential mechanical failure during generator operation.
• Drop-In Service Component — Sized and finished to install directly in place of the original, supporting a clean, efficient service or rebuild without secondary machining or fitment work.

A shim is a precisely machined spacer used to set and maintain the correct clearance or alignment between two mating components within an assembly. In a diesel generator like the DCA-series ultra-silent units, shims are critical to ensuring that rotating and stationary parts operate within their designed tolerances — preventing excessive play, vibration, or contact that can accelerate wear. When a shim is lost, damaged, or worn beyond its specified thickness, mechanical alignment is compromised and the surrounding components can suffer premature failure, making prompt replacement with the correct OEM part essential.
