97567800 SHIM

SKU: 2443

Shims in a triplex plunger pump are thin precision spacers used to set clearances and stack height in the seal or plunger assembly — small adjustments here control how tightly the seal stack compresses and how the plunger aligns with the packings. Part 97567800 is a replacement shim for pumps whose parts list calls for it; shims get reused until they are bent, corroded, or lost, and a missing shim can leave a seal stack loose or a plunger misaligned. Because shim thickness and placement are pump-specific, order strictly by part number: confirm 97567800 on your pump's exploded parts diagram and install it exactly where the diagram shows it.
