The Wacker Neuson Shim.005 is a genuine OEM shim designed for the CRT36ASO, CRT36ASN, and CRT46ASO ride-on concrete trowels. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this part carries the same specifications as the component installed at the factory, ensuring dimensional accuracy where precise clearance control matters most. It is confirmed to fit the 915mm/36-inch and CRT46 ride-on trowel series, making it a straightforward replacement when servicing these machines.
Key Features
- Exact Thickness Specification — At .005 inches, this shim delivers the precise clearance needed to maintain correct component alignment and spacing within the trowel drivetrain.
- Genuine OEM Construction — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original material and dimensional standards, ensuring the shim compresses and seats consistently under load without distortion or creep.
- Direct-Fit Replacement — Engineered as a drop-in match for the CRT36ASO, CRT36ASN, and CRT46ASO, integrating into the existing assembly without reworking mating surfaces.
- Ride-On Trowel Series Coverage — Compatible across the CRT36 and CRT46 ride-on concrete trowel families, covering both overlapping and non-overlapping rotor configurations.
- Protects Critical Clearances — Correct shimming prevents excessive play or binding in rotating assemblies; an undersized or worn shim can lead to uneven finish quality and accelerated wear on adjacent components.
A shim is a thin, precision-thickness spacer used to set or restore the correct gap between two mating components in a mechanical assembly. In a ride-on concrete trowel like the CRT36 and CRT46 series, shims are used to control tolerances in the rotor drive and gearbox areas, ensuring rotating parts spin true and transfer power efficiently to the finishing blades. When a shim is missing, damaged, or incorrectly sized, excess play or misalignment can develop, leading to vibration, uneven blade pressure, and premature wear on surrounding parts.
