The Wacker Neuson is a genuine OEM Axle Bearing designed for the E3000 ES Hydronic Surface Heater, E3000 ES Ground Heater, and E3000 ES Ground Heater 3kW Gen series. As a factory-sourced component, this bearing meets the original design tolerances specified for E3000-series HSH equipment, giving you a direct, confidence-inspiring swap when the original unit shows wear. Wacker Neuson genuine OEM parts are manufactured to the same standards as the components that left the factory, so you can count on consistent fit and function across all compatible E3000 ES configurations.
Key Features
- OEM-Grade Load Tolerance — Manufactured to the original radial and axial load ratings specified for the E3000 ES axle assembly, preventing premature wear under continuous heating-season use.
- Drop-In Axle Fit — Engineered to the exact bore and outer-race dimensions of the original bearing, seating correctly on the axle shaft without modification.
- Broad E3000 ES Compatibility — Confirmed fitment across the E3000 ES Hydronic Surface Heater, E3000 ES Ground Heater, and E3000 ES Ground Heater 3kW Gen variants.
- Smooth Wheel Rotation Under Load — A correctly functioning axle bearing keeps the unit rolling freely during repositioning on-site; a worn bearing can cause binding, uneven drag, or axle damage that sidelines the heater.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson OEM Part — Sourced directly through the Wacker Neuson parts network, carrying the correct part number 5000172447 for straightforward verification against your machine's parts manual.
The axle bearing supports the wheel hub on the E3000 ES frame, allowing the unit to be moved smoothly across ground and work surfaces between heating zones. It absorbs the radial forces generated by the machine's weight as it rolls, protecting the axle shaft from side-loading and friction wear. When the bearing wears out or seizes, wheel movement becomes stiff or erratic, placing additional stress on the axle and frame — making timely replacement important for keeping the heater maneuverable and protecting surrounding components.
