The Wacker Neuson 5000172983 Spring is a genuine OEM component designed for the BS50-2, BS60-2, BS70-2, and BS65-V series gasoline vibratory rammers, as well as compatible MS-series units. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this spring meets the exact specifications required for proper rammer operation across a wide range of BS-family models, including standard, i-spec, and EU configurations. Whether you are servicing a BS50-2i, a BS70-2 EU, or any supported variant in between, part number 5000172983 is the correct OEM replacement to restore your machine to proper working order.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Spring Tension Spec — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original load and deflection ratings, ensuring the spring performs exactly as the rammer's design demands — not a close approximation.
- Drop-In Replacement for BS-Family Rammers — Engineered to seat and engage in the same position as the original, fitting BS50-2, BS50-2i, BS60-2, BS60-2i, BS70-2, BS70-2i, BS65-V, BS 500, BS 600, BS 700, and compatible MS-series machines without alteration.
- Wide Model Coverage — A single part number covers standard, i-spec, EU, and legacy BS-series variants, simplifying inventory for service shops and fleet operators running mixed rammer fleets.
- Preserves Rammer Impact Rhythm — A correctly tensioned spring maintains the rammer's consistent stroke cycle and compaction force. A fatigued or broken spring disrupts the jumping action, leading to uneven compaction and accelerated wear on surrounding components.
- Verified OEM Part Number — Part number 5000172983 is the authoritative Wacker Neuson reference for this spring across all listed BS and MS fitments, eliminating guesswork when ordering.
The spring in a vibratory rammer is a core element of the machine's impact mechanism, storing and releasing energy to drive the consistent up-and-down stroke that compacts cohesive soils and trench backfill. It works in coordination with the engine's eccentric mass to produce the rhythmic jumping action that gives the BS-series rammer its compaction force. When a spring loses tension, cracks, or breaks entirely, the rammer loses its characteristic stroke pattern — compaction output drops, the machine may become erratic to control, and continued operation can place additional stress on the crankshaft and guide assembly.
