The Wacker Neuson is a genuine OEM Shim 0.010 Thick, Brown designed for the CT30, CT36, and CT48 series walk-behind concrete power trowels. As a direct OEM part, is manufactured to the exact thickness and material specification required for proper trowel head and gearbox assembly. This shim fits an extensive range of CT series models including gasoline, diesel, electric, variable speed, and CE-compliant variants across the 30-inch, 36-inch, and 48-inch rotor sizes. When precision-fit tolerancing matters in your finishing equipment, sourcing the correct OEM shim keeps your trowel performing as intended.
Key Features
- Exact Thickness Tolerance: — Manufactured at precisely 0.010 inches thick to maintain correct stack height and clearance within the trowel assembly — even minor shim variation can affect blade pitch and finishing performance.
- Genuine OEM Part: — Supplied by Wacker Neuson as an original equipment component, ensuring the material grade and dimensional accuracy match what was installed at the factory.
- Broad CT Series Compatibility: — Fits CT30, CT36, and CT48 walk-behind trowel models across gasoline (AGP, AGT), diesel (ADP, ADT, BDT), electric (EDT), and variable speed (AVP, AVT) configurations, including CE-compliant variants.
- Drop-In Installation: — Dimensioned to seat correctly in the existing assembly without modification, maintaining proper component alignment during reassembly.
- Protects Surrounding Components: — A correctly sized shim prevents unwanted play or preload in the assembly, reducing wear on adjacent gears, bearings, and housings over time.
A shim is a precision-thickness spacer used to set or restore correct clearance and alignment between mating components in a mechanical assembly. In a walk-behind concrete trowel, shims are commonly used in the rotor hub, gearbox, or spider assembly to control axial play and ensure consistent blade pitch across the full rotor sweep. When a shim is worn, incorrect, or missing, components can shift out of alignment, causing uneven blade contact, accelerated wear on gears and bearings, and inconsistent concrete finishing results. Using the correct OEM shim — with the right thickness and material — is essential to restoring the assembly to its original operating specification.
