Description

This piston & liner shim serves as a critical adjustment component within the heavy-duty diesel engine assembly. It is fitted between the cylinder liner and the block seating surface to bring the liner protrusion into the exact target range required for optimal sealing. By maintaining precise height, this component ensures that the cylinder head gasket receives the correct clamping pressure under high combustion loads.

This specific shim is compatible with Scania engines. It is engineered to withstand extreme thermal cycles and high cylinder pressures common in heavy commercial vehicle applications. The component is vital during engine overhauls to ensure that each cylinder maintains the specific protrusion levels required by the manufacturer.

For proper installation, ensure all seating surfaces on the engine block are thoroughly cleaned of residue or corrosion. It is recommended to measure each cylinder individually, as block wear can vary between cylinders. This 0,50 mm thickness part must be installed following strict torque sequences to maintain its structural integrity and prevent coolant or oil leaks.

Consult your authorized distributor for more information.

FAQ

What is the function of a piston & liner shim?
The shim adjusts the liner protrusion height relative to the block surface, ensuring correct clamping pressure on the cylinder head gasket for a secure seal.
Which engines is this shim compatible with?
This specific 0,50 mm shim is designed for compatibility with Scania engines requiring these precise dimensions.
Why is thickness measurement important?
Accurate thickness is critical because even minor deviations can lead to incorrect liner protrusion, potentially causing head gasket failure or coolant leaks.
Can I stack multiple shims together?
It is best practice to use a single shim of the correct thickness grade rather than stacking multiple thin shims to ensure stability under load.
What are the OE reference numbers of this part?
1400 02 008 directly replaces Scania OE number 1118379.
