The Wacker Neuson Drum Support Shim is a genuine OEM component designed for the RD7 series walk-behind tandem rollers, including the RD7H-ES, RD7H-S, and RD7 double drum vibratory roller variants. As a direct OEM replacement, is manufactured to the exact tolerances required for proper drum alignment and support in these machines. This shim ensures the drum assembly is correctly positioned, helping maintain consistent compaction performance across asphalt and soil applications. Confirm your model number against the fitment list before ordering to ensure an accurate match.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Tolerancing — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's exact thickness and material specifications, so drum alignment is maintained without adjustment or shimming workarounds.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Engineered to install in the same drum support position as the original, with no additional hardware needed.
- Broad RD7 Series Coverage — Fits multiple RD7 configurations including the RD7H-ES, RD7H-S, and RD7 double drum vibratory roller variants, covering both EU and standard models.
- Preserves Drum Alignment — A correctly fitted drum support shim keeps lateral drum movement within spec, preventing uneven wear on drum bearings and maintaining smooth compaction output.
- OEM Part Number Verified — Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson as part number 5000117967, ensuring you receive the correct component for your machine.
A drum support shim is a precision spacer used within the drum assembly of a tandem roller to set and maintain the correct lateral position of the drum relative to its support structure. By controlling the gap and alignment between mating components, the shim prevents side-load stress on drum bearings and keeps the compaction drum running true. When this shim wears down, becomes damaged, or is missing, the drum can shift out of alignment, leading to accelerated bearing wear, vibration irregularities, and inconsistent compaction passes on the surface being worked.
