The Wacker Neuson 5100022860 is a genuine OEM Circlip designed for the RC50, RC70, and RC70VO series single-drum soil compactors. As a direct factory replacement, this circlip is sourced to the same specifications as the original component installed at the time of manufacture. Fitment spans the full RC50 and RC70 family, including standard, padfoot, DPF CAB, DPF ROPS, VO, and US-configured variants. Verify your machine's model and serial number against the fitment list before ordering to ensure an accurate match.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Retention Geometry — Manufactured to exact dimensional tolerances for the circlip groove it seats in, ensuring positive retention without gap or play.
- Drop-In Replacement — Installs directly into the original groove without rework; matches the snap profile and material spring rate of the factory part.
- Broad RC-Series Coverage — Confirmed fit across RC50, RC50p, RC50 US, RC70, RC70p, RC70VO, RC70vo, and their DPF CAB, DPF ROPS, and US variants.
- Maintains Shaft and Component Alignment — A correctly seated circlip prevents axial movement of shafts, pins, or bearings; a worn or missing clip allows components to shift under compaction load, accelerating wear on surrounding parts.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson Part — Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, carrying the same part number (5100022860) used by authorized service centers and dealer workshops.
A circlip is a small but critical retaining fastener that seats into a machined groove on a shaft or inside a bore to prevent lateral or axial movement of an adjacent component. On a single-drum soil compactor like the RC50 or RC70, circlips are used throughout the drivetrain, vibration system, and articulation assemblies to lock bearings, pins, and gears in position under heavy dynamic loads. When a circlip fails, cracks, or is lost during service, the unsecured component can shift or disengage entirely, leading to accelerated wear, noise, or mechanical failure of the surrounding assembly. Replacing a worn or damaged circlip promptly with the correct OEM part helps restore the mechanical integrity of the assembly it supports.
