The Wacker Neuson is a genuine OEM Shim DIN522 10.5x30x4 140HV A2K designed for the WL50 Articulated Wheel Loader, including axle assemblies on that platform. As a factory-sourced component, part is manufactured to the exact dimensional and hardness tolerances called out by the original engineering specification — critical for a precision shim where even minor variation affects load distribution and clearance. This shim is confirmed for use on WL50 cab-configured machines and associated axle assemblies, making it a straightforward, direct-fit service replacement when performing axle work or drivetrain maintenance.
Key Features
- Exact DIN522 Dimensional Compliance — Ground to the 10.5x30x4 mm profile specified under DIN522, ensuring correct clearance and load-bearing contact within the axle assembly.
- 140HV Hardness Rating — The 140HV Vickers hardness specification resists deformation under the sustained axial and radial loads typical of wheel loader axle service.
- A2K Material Grade — Manufactured to A2K stainless grade for corrosion resistance and dimensional stability in demanding outdoor and muddy operating conditions.
- Genuine OEM Sourcing — Supplied by Wacker Neuson as a factory part, carrying the same part number used in the original build and service documentation for the WL50.
- Confirmed WL50 Axle Fitment — Validated for WL50 Articulated Wheel Loader axle assemblies, including cab-configured machines, covering both axle assembly references on that platform.
A shim is a precisely dimensioned spacer used within an axle or drivetrain assembly to set and maintain correct clearances between rotating and stationary components. In a wheel loader axle, shims like the 1000222577 control bearing preload, gear mesh spacing, and component alignment — all of which directly affect how smoothly and safely the axle transfers power to the wheels. When a shim wears, deforms, or is incorrectly sized during reassembly, it can result in excessive play, premature bearing wear, or noise and vibration under load, making correct shim selection a critical step in any axle rebuild or overhaul.
