Description
What does a piston & liner shim do?
This piston & liner shim is a critical adjustment component used to bring cylinder liner protrusion into the exact target range required for engine sealing. By ensuring the liner sits at the correct height relative to the block surface, this part allows the head gasket to maintain a balanced clamping load, which is essential for preventing gas leaks and protecting the engine head assembly.Technical specifications and fitment
This specific shim is designed for use in TD60 engine applications. It features an outside diameter of 118.60 mm, an inside diameter of 113.10 mm, and a thickness of 0.15 mm. These dimensions ensure a precise fit within the cylinder block assembly during engine overhauls.Installation and maintenance
During installation, technicians should ensure the seating surface is clean and free of debris to allow the shim to sit perfectly flat. It is vital to measure the liner protrusion after installation to confirm it meets the specific requirements defined by the engine manufacturer's service manual.Importance of precise protrusion
Proper selection of shim thickness is vital when replacing liners or performing full engine rebuilds in heavy commercial vehicles to prevent premature gasket failure or combustion leaks.Technical Specifications

FAQ
What is the purpose of a piston & liner shim?
A shim is used to adjust the liner protrusion in heavy-duty engines, ensuring the cylinder head gasket receives the correct clamping pressure to prevent leaks.
What are the dimensions of this specific shim?
This shim has an outside diameter of 118.60 mm, an inside diameter of 113.10 mm, and a thickness of 0.15 mm.
Why is precise thickness important during installation?
Correct thickness is vital because it determines the liner protrusion; incorrect height can lead to improper gasket sealing and potential engine failure.
When should I replace the piston & liner shims?
Shims should be inspected and potentially replaced whenever a cylinder liner is replaced or during a comprehensive engine overhaul.
