Description

What does a piston & liner shim do?

This piston & liner shim is a critical adjustment component used during engine overhauls to set the precise liner protrusion within the engine block. By providing a controlled thickness, it ensures the cylinder liner sits at the exact height required to maintain proper clamping pressure on the cylinder head gasket, which is vital for preventing leaks and maintaining compression in heavy-duty diesel engines.

Compatibility and technical fitment

This specific shim is compatible with Mercedes-Benz engines and is engineered to withstand high cylinder pressures. It features an outside diameter of 163.50 mm and an inside diameter of 153.40 mm, making it suitable for applications requiring an Ø 130 specification. These high-strength components are essential for maintaining engine structural integrity during rebuilds.

Installation and maintenance guidance

When performing an engine overhaul, technicians must measure the existing liner protrusion to select the correct shim thickness from the available range. Proper installation of this 0.30 mm shim prevents uneven gasket loading and potential overheating or oil seepage issues in heavy commercial vehicle engines.

Selection for engine overhauls

Consult your authorized distributor for more information on fitment and technical support.
