The Wacker Neuson Shim is a genuine OEM component designed for the RD27-100 and RD27-120 hydrostatic vibratory rollers. As a direct factory replacement, this shim is sourced from Wacker Neuson's authorized parts program, ensuring it meets the exact material thickness and dimensional tolerances specified for these machines. It is confirmed to fit multiple machine configurations within the RD27-100 and RD27-120 series, making it a straightforward, confidence-first purchase for operators and service technicians keeping their rollers in spec.
Key Features
- Exact OEM Thickness Tolerance — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's precise dimensional spec, ensuring correct bearing preload, clearance, or spacing when installed.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Engineered to seat in the same position as the original, with no reworking of mating surfaces required.
- Confirmed RD27 Series Fitment — Compatible with RD27-100 and RD27-120 hydrostatic vibratory roller configurations across multiple machine numbers.
- Maintains Critical Alignment — A shim at incorrect thickness causes premature wear on adjacent components; using the correct OEM part preserves alignment and protects surrounding assemblies.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson Part — Supplied under part number 5000161614 directly from the Wacker Neuson OEM parts program for traceability and fitment confidence.
A shim is a thin, precision-machined spacer used to fill gaps, set clearances, or adjust the alignment between two mating components. In a hydrostatic vibratory roller like the RD27 series, shims are commonly used to fine-tune the fit of drivetrain, drum, or hydraulic system components, ensuring each assembly operates within its designed tolerance range. When a shim is missing, damaged, or replaced with one of incorrect thickness, it can throw adjacent components out of alignment, accelerating wear and compromising the machine's compaction performance.
