Wacker Neuson 5100005556 Shim Screw

The Wacker Neuson Shim Screw is a genuine OEM component designed for a broad range of Wacker Neuson vibratory plates, reversible plates, and rammers — including the APS, BPS, APU, AP, AS, WP, AT, DPS, ARS, and ACBe series. As a factory-sourced part, the is manufactured to the exact tolerances specified for these machines, ensuring correct installation every time. This shim screw is confirmed compatible across dozens of configurations spanning the APS1030, BPS1340, APU3050, WP1550, and many additional model variants in both standard and walk-behind configurations.

Key Features

• OEM-Grade Thread Tolerancing — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's exact dimensional spec, so the shim screw seats and torques correctly without slop or mismatch at the mounting point.
• Drop-In Installation — Replaces the original shim screw position-for-position; no chasing threads or reworking the bore required before installation.
• Broad Series Coverage — A single part number covers APS, BPS, APU, AP, AS, WP, AT, DPS, ARS, and ACBe series machines, making it a practical stock item for fleets running multiple Wacker Neuson models.
• Maintains Proper Shimming Clearance — A correctly fitted shim screw holds critical component spacing within spec; a worn or missing one allows unwanted play that accelerates wear on surrounding assembly components.
• Genuine Wacker Neuson Part — Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, part number 5100005556 carries the same quality assurance as the original hardware installed at the factory.

A shim screw serves a precise spacing and adjustment function within a mechanical assembly — it locks a set shim in position to maintain the correct gap or clearance between mating components. In vibratory compaction equipment, maintaining these clearances is critical: even a small amount of unwanted movement at a fastened joint can translate into vibration imbalance, accelerated wear on adjoining parts, or misalignment that degrades compaction performance. When a shim screw becomes worn, stripped, or lost, the surrounding components lose their fixed reference point, which can lead to progressive mechanical damage if the machine continues in service without replacement.
