The Wacker Neuson Centrifugal Clutch is a genuine OEM component designed for the BS and BH series gasoline rammers and breakers, including the BS50, BS60, BS70, BS65, BS72, BH55, and BH65 families. This is a direct OEM replacement sourced from Wacker Neuson, ensuring the part meets the original design specifications for your machine. Fitment extends across a wide range of BS2, BS4As, BH55, and BH65 models, as well as select AS-series battery-powered rammers. Verify your model number against the fitment list before ordering to confirm compatibility.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Engagement Spec — Manufactured to the original centrifugal engagement RPM threshold, so the clutch picks up load at the correct engine speed — not too early, not too late.
- Drop-In Installation — Matches the original shaft interface and bell housing dimensions on compatible BS and BH models, allowing straightforward removal and reinstallation without custom fitting.
- Broad Model Coverage — Fits BS50, BS60, BS70, BS65, and BS72 rammers (2-stroke, 4-stroke, and AS-series battery variants) plus BH55 and BH65 gasoline breakers across multiple configurations.
- Restores Full Power Transfer — A worn clutch causes slipping, sluggish compaction stroke, or failure to engage under load. A fresh 5100045607 restores crisp, full-force power transmission to the rammer or breaker mechanism.
- Drivetrain Safety Compliance — The centrifugal clutch is a critical safety interface between engine and drive; using a genuine OEM unit ensures correct disengagement at idle, preventing unintended tool movement when the operator releases throttle.
The centrifugal clutch is the mechanical link between the engine's crankshaft and the rammer or breaker drive mechanism. At idle, the clutch shoes retract and the drivetrain remains disengaged, keeping the tool stationary. As engine RPM rises under throttle, centrifugal force pushes the shoes outward against the drum, progressively locking up and transferring power to drive the compaction or breaking stroke. When the clutch wears, shoes glaze or springs weaken, leading to slippage under load, overheating, reduced compaction output, or complete loss of drive — all symptoms that point directly to clutch replacement.
