Description

This piston and liner shim is a decisive component used to bring liner protrusion in heavy-duty diesel engines into the target range. By fitting this thin ring onto a clean seating surface, the cylinder head gasket achieves a balanced clamping load, which is critical for preventing gas leaks and repeat gasket failures during engine overhauls.

These high-strength components are designed to maintain their dimensions under extreme heat and pressure from oil and coolant. This specific 0.15 mm version is essential for achieving the exact protrusion required by the engine manufacturer's specifications, ensuring the integrity of the combustion chamber seal.

For proper installation, technicians should ensure the liner seating surface is completely clean before fitting the shim. The thickness must be verified against the service manual to ensure correct protrusion levels are achieved. Maintaining precise measurements during liner replacement is vital for long-term engine reliability and preventing premature gasket failure.

Always consult the vehicle manufacturer's service manual for specific torque values and protrusion tolerances when performing engine rebuilds.

FAQ

What is the function of a piston & liner shim?
A shim is used to adjust the liner protrusion height, ensuring the cylinder head gasket receives the correct clamping load to prevent leaks.
How do I know if I need a new shim?
When replacing a cylinder liner or performing an engine overhaul, a new shim should be measured and fitted to reach the target protrusion.
What are the dimensions of this specific shim?
This component has an outside diameter of 119.40 mm, an inside diameter of 112.15 mm, and a thickness of 0.15 mm.
Why is shim thickness critical for engine maintenance?
Incorrect thickness can lead to improper liner protrusion, causing uneven clamping pressure on the gasket and potential engine failure.
