Description

This piston and liner shim is a critical component used to achieve the precise liner protrusion required in heavy-duty diesel engine assemblies. By compensating for manufacturing tolerances or block wear, the shim ensures the cylinder liner seats correctly against the block shoulder, allowing the head gasket to maintain a balanced clamping load and preventing gas leaks.

This specific shim is designed for DS 8 engine applications. It features an outside diameter of 137.10 mm and an inside diameter of 132.50 mm, with a thickness of exactly 0.50 mm. Using a single shim of the correct grade is essential to maintain structural integrity under high thermal and mechanical loads.

For successful installation, ensure all contact surfaces are completely free of gasket residue, scale, or corrosion to avoid inaccurate protrusion readings. Technicians should measure each cylinder individually and follow the manufacturer-specified torque sequence during assembly to ensure the liner remains stable under operating pressures.

Consult your authorized distributor for more information on engine component compatibility.

FAQ

What is the purpose of a piston and liner shim?
A liner shim is used to set the correct cylinder liner protrusion in heavy-duty engines, ensuring the head gasket receives the proper clamping load.
Can I stack multiple thin shims together?
No, it is recommended to use a single shim of the correct thickness grade rather than stacking multiple thin shims to maintain stability.
How should I prepare surfaces before fitting the shim?
The block shoulder must be thoroughly cleaned of all gasket residue, scale, and corrosion to ensure accurate measurement and seating.
What are the dimensions for this specific DS 8 shim?
This component has an outside diameter of 137.10 mm, an inside diameter of 132.50 mm, and a thickness of 0.50 mm.
