Wacker Neuson 5100012456 Bushing

The Wacker Neuson 5100012456 is a genuine OEM Bushing designed for a broad range of Wacker Neuson tandem rollers and single-drum soil compactors, including the RD18, RD24, RD27, RD28, RD40, and RD45 tandem roller series, as well as the RC50 and RC70 single-drum soil compactor families. As a genuine OEM component, the 5100012456 is manufactured to the exact tolerances and material specifications required for proper fit and function within these machines. This part covers an extensive fitment range spanning standard, open-ROPS, cab, DPF, combo, and electric variants across both the RD and RC product lines. Confirm your machine model and serial number before ordering to ensure the 5100012456 is the correct bushing for your application.

Key Features

• Genuine OEM Material Grade — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's exact dimensional tolerances and material hardness specifications, ensuring the bushing resists wear and deformation under the continuous vibration loads generated by compaction equipment.
• Direct Drop-In Installation — Engineered to match the original bore diameter and length, allowing the bushing to seat correctly in its housing without machining or shimming.
• Broad RD and RC Series Coverage — A single part number covering the RD18, RD24, RD27, RD28, RD40, and RD45 tandem roller families and the RC50 and RC70 single-drum soil compactor lines, including standard, open-ROPS, cab, DPF, and electric variants.
• Maintains Pivot and Articulation Integrity — A worn or undersized bushing allows excess play in the joint it supports, leading to uneven drum contact, steering imprecision, and accelerated wear on surrounding components; a correctly sized replacement restores tight, controlled movement.
• Verified Wacker Neuson Part Number — Cross-reference part number 5100012456 against your machine's parts manual to confirm application before installation.

A bushing is a cylindrical sleeve fitted between two moving or load-bearing surfaces — typically a pin, shaft, or pivot — to reduce friction, absorb vibration, and control the amount of movement between those surfaces. In tandem rollers and single-drum soil compactors, bushings are commonly found in articulation joints, drum mounting points, and steering linkages, where they take on significant repetitive stress during operation. When a bushing wears beyond its service limit, the resulting looseness causes knocking, misalignment, and uneven load distribution that can accelerate damage to the pins, housings, and frame components around it, making timely replacement essential to keeping the machine operating accurately and efficiently.
