The Wacker Neuson 5100012241 is a genuine OEM Actuating Cable designed for the RD24, RD27, and RD28 series tandem rollers. As a direct OEM replacement, this cable is manufactured to the same specifications as the original part, ensuring correct travel, tension, and engagement across all covered configurations. Fitment spans a wide range of RD24-100, RD27-120, and RD28-120 tandem roller variants, including standard, combination, open-ROPS, and DPF-equipped models. Keep part number 5100012241 on hand as a service spare to minimize disruption during planned maintenance or unplanned cable failure.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original cable length, end-fitting, and sheath specifications so actuation stroke and resistance match the design intent exactly.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Engineered to connect to the original anchor points and cable guides on RD24, RD27, and RD28 tandem rollers without rework or adapter hardware.
- Broad RD-Series Fitment — Covers a wide range of RD24-100, RD27-120, and RD28-120 configurations, including standard, combination drum, open-ROPS, US-market, and DPF variants.
- Consistent Control Response — A correctly tensioned actuating cable delivers smooth, predictable operator control; a stretched or broken cable can cause sluggish or unresponsive machine behavior, affecting compaction accuracy and operator confidence.
- Verified OEM Part Number — Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, part number 5100012241 matches the OEM bill of materials for all listed RD-series models, giving you confidence in fitment before the part arrives on site.
An actuating cable transmits mechanical input from an operator control — such as a lever or pedal — to a downstream component like a drive clutch, brake, or directional mechanism. On tandem rollers such as the RD24 and RD28 series, these cables play a direct role in translating operator intent into machine movement and drum engagement. When a cable stretches, frays, or snaps, the connected function becomes sluggish, inaccurate, or completely unresponsive, which can compromise compaction passes and bring the machine to a standstill until the cable is replaced.
