The Wacker Neuson Bushing is a genuine OEM component designed for the E2200, E3000, E3000 ES, and E5000 ground heaters and hydronic surface heaters, the HI 770 XHD indirect air heater, and the Pureheat and Cross Heater (CH5000) hydronic heater lines. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this bushing meets the exact tolerances and material specifications of the original part it replaces. It fits a broad range of heater configurations across the E-series and HI 770 XHD families, including lift bail, generator, and diesel burner variants. Always verify your machine's model number before ordering to confirm compatibility.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Tolerancing — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original dimensional spec, ensuring the correct bearing surface and interference fit for bushing-dependent pivot and shaft points in heater assemblies.
- Drop-In Replacement — Matches the original mounting geometry so installation follows the standard service procedure for E-series and HI 770 XHD heaters with no rework to surrounding components.
- Broad E-Series and HI 770 XHD Fitment — Confirmed for E2200, E3000, E3000 ES, and E5000 ground heaters and hydronic surface heaters, the HI 770 XHD indirect air heater, and Pureheat and CH5000 hydronic heater models.
- Preserves Smooth Operation — A correctly fitted bushing controls shaft movement and absorbs friction at contact points; a worn or loose bushing can introduce play, accelerate wear on adjacent components, and lead to misalignment in heater mechanisms.
- Verified Wacker Neuson Part Number — Order with confidence using part number 5000168263 to ensure you receive the correct bushing for your specific heater model and configuration.
A bushing is a cylindrical sleeve that sits between two moving or load-bearing components — typically a shaft and a housing — to reduce friction, control alignment, and absorb wear. In heater equipment like the E-series ground heaters and HI 770 XHD indirect air heaters, bushings are used at pivot points, linkages, and mechanical interfaces where controlled movement or support is required. When a bushing wears out, it allows excess play between components, which can cause misalignment, accelerated wear on surrounding parts, and inconsistent mechanical operation — making timely replacement important for keeping the heater assembly functioning as intended.
