The Wacker Neuson Top Cover Shim.022, Yellow is a genuine OEM shim designed for the CRT36 and CRT48 series ride-on concrete trowels. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this shim is manufactured to the exact thickness and material specification required for correct top cover alignment and clearance on these machines. Compatible across a wide range of CRT36 and CRT48 models — including the CRT36-24A, CRT36-25, CRT36-26A, CRT48-31V, CRT48-33K, CRT48-34V, CRT48-35L, CRT48-35V, CRT48-37V, CRT48-57K, and their Power Steer, Dual-Fuel, Electronic Steering, and EU variants — part number covers an extensive span of the CRT ride-on trowel lineup. The yellow color coding on this shim makes identification straightforward during service, reducing the chance of selecting the wrong thickness from a shim stack.
Key Features
- Exact OEM Thickness: — Manufactured to a precise .022 inch specification, ensuring the correct top cover gap and alignment on CRT ride-on trowels without guesswork.
- Color-Coded for Fast Identification: — Yellow coding distinguishes this shim from other thickness grades in a set, making teardown and reassembly faster and less error-prone.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson Part: — Produced to OEM standards for the CRT family, meaning material hardness and dimensional tolerances match the original engineering intent for long-term performance under trowel operating loads.
- Broad CRT Series Coverage: — Fits CRT36 and CRT48 models across multiple generations and configurations, including standard, high-speed, Power Steer, Dual-Fuel, Electronic Steering, and EU-spec variants.
- Drop-In Service Replacement: — Installs in the same position as the original shim with no machining or modification; simply select the correct thickness from the shim stack during top cover reassembly.
A top cover shim controls the clearance between the top cover and the rotating assembly beneath it on a ride-on concrete trowel. Setting this gap to the correct specification is critical — too much clearance allows unwanted movement and vibration, while too little can cause binding or accelerated wear on mating surfaces. Shims like the 5000163659 are used during assembly or overhaul to dial in that clearance precisely; the color coding indicates the shim's thickness grade so technicians can quickly identify and select the right piece from a shim assortment during service.
