The Wacker Neuson Shim is a genuine OEM component designed for the RD27-100 and RD27-120 hydrostatic vibratory tandem rollers. As a factory-sourced part, it meets the exact dimensional tolerances required for proper assembly and alignment within the machine. This shim is confirmed to fit multiple configurations across the RD27 series, including both the RD27-100 and RD27-120 models. Keeping this small but critical component in spec is essential to maintaining correct clearances and long-term drivetrain or structural integrity.
Key Features
- Exact OEM Thickness Tolerance — sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this shim matches the precise dimensional specification required for correct component spacing and alignment in RD27 series rollers.
- Direct-Fit Replacement — engineered to drop into the same position as the original, with no material trimming or adjustment needed during reassembly.
- RD27 Series Compatibility — verified fitment across the RD27-100 and RD27-120 hydrostatic vibratory tandem roller configurations.
- Preserves Critical Clearances — a shim that is worn, missing, or dimensionally incorrect can cause misalignment, accelerated wear, and premature component failure; this OEM replacement restores the correct gap.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson Part — part number 5000161660 is an authorized OEM replacement, ensuring full material and dimensional conformance with the original design.
A shim is a thin, precisely machined spacer used to fill gaps, set clearances, or achieve correct alignment between mating components during assembly. In a hydrostatic vibratory roller like the RD27 series, shims are commonly used in drivetrain, drum, or structural assemblies where tight tolerances directly affect performance and component longevity. When a shim is lost, damaged, or worn beyond its original thickness, the resulting misalignment can cause uneven load distribution, increased wear on surrounding parts, and eventual mechanical failure — making prompt replacement with the correct OEM part essential.
