The Wacker Neuson Shim is a genuine OEM component designed for the PT2, PT2A, PT2H, and PT2V series 2-inch self-priming centrifugal trash pumps. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this shim delivers the exact thickness and material specification required for correct internal clearance and alignment within the pump assembly. It fits across a wide range of PT2 family configurations, including standard, high-head (PT2H), and vertical-discharge (PT2V) variants. Keep a spare on hand to support fast, accurate servicing whenever pump internals need adjustment or reassembly.
Key Features
- Exact OEM Thickness Spec — Manufactured to the precise dimensional tolerance required to set correct internal pump clearances — no guesswork during reassembly.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson Part — Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, ensuring authentic material grade and dimensional accuracy for the PT2 pump family.
- Broad PT2 Family Coverage — Compatible with PT2, PT2A, PT2H, and PT2V configurations across multiple serial number ranges, including 50mm/2-inch centrifugal trash pump builds.
- Critical to Pump Efficiency — Correct shim placement maintains proper impeller-to-volute clearance; even slight misalignment reduces flow output and accelerates wear on rotating components.
- Drop-In Service Part — Installs directly into the existing pump assembly with no machining or modification, making it a straightforward replacement during routine pump overhaul.
A shim is a precision-thickness spacer used inside the pump assembly to set and maintain the correct clearance between moving and stationary components — most commonly between the impeller and the pump housing or volute. In a centrifugal trash pump like the PT2 series, this clearance directly affects hydraulic efficiency: too much gap reduces suction and discharge performance, while too little risks contact between rotating parts, generating heat and accelerating wear. When a pump begins to lose prime easily, delivers reduced flow, or shows signs of internal rubbing, worn or incorrectly sized shims are a common cause that is often overlooked during diagnosis.
