The Wacker Neuson is a genuine OEM Camshaft Shim Red designed for CRT48-25K and CRT36-23K/25K series ride-on concrete trowels. As a genuine OEM component, part is produced to the exact tolerancing required for precise camshaft end-play adjustment in these machines. This shim is confirmed to fit the CRT48-25K-L (1220mm/48in Low Speed), CRT48-25K-H (1220mm/48in High Speed), CRT36-23K-H (915mm/36in High Speed), and CRT36-25K-H (915mm/36in High Speed) ride-on trowels. Sourcing the correct OEM shim ensures the camshaft operates within its specified clearance range, protecting the engine's valve train and long-term performance.
Key Features
- Color-Coded Thickness Identification — The red color designation identifies a specific shim thickness, allowing technicians to select the correct shim quickly and accurately during camshaft end-play adjustment.
- Genuine OEM Tolerancing — Manufactured to the exact dimensional specification required for the camshaft journals in these CRT engines, ensuring proper clearance without guesswork or hand-fitting.
- Direct Drop-In Fit — Installs in the same position as the original shim with no machining or secondary fitting; designed to seat correctly within the existing camshaft bearing journal stack.
- CRT Series Compatibility — Fits CRT48-25K-L, CRT48-25K-H, CRT36-23K-H, and CRT36-25K-H ride-on concrete trowels — covering both 36in and 48in Wacker Neuson CRT platforms.
- Valve Train Protection — Correct camshaft end-play is critical to maintaining valve timing and preventing accelerated wear on cam lobes, bearings, and adjacent engine components.
A camshaft shim is a precision-ground spacer used to set and control the axial end-play of the camshaft within the engine block. On ride-on concrete trowels like the CRT series, maintaining correct camshaft end-play keeps valve timing accurate and prevents the camshaft from walking or binding during operation. When a shim is worn, damaged, or the wrong thickness is installed, excessive end-play can develop — leading to erratic valve timing, increased wear on the cam lobes and bearings, and potentially serious engine damage over time.
