Key Features

• Exact M5 X 8 Thread Specification — Machined to precise M5 thread pitch and 8mm length, ensuring full thread engagement and consistent clamping force in the designated fastener locations.
• Cheese Head Profile for Recessed Mounting — The low-profile cheese head geometry seats flush or sub-flush in countered panels and housings, matching the original assembly design across all listed models.
• Genuine Wacker Neuson OEM Quality — Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this fastener meets the same hardness and surface treatment standards as the original hardware installed at the factory.
• Broad BS-Series and PT6 Compatibility — Fits BS50-2, BS50-2i, BS60-2, BS60-2i, BS70-2, BS70-2i, BS52Y, BS65Y, BS65-V rammers as well as PT6LT, PT6LS, and PT6Y trash pumps and FU/FUE converter units.
• Critical for Structural Integrity During High-Vibration Operation — Rammers operate under continuous impact and vibration loads; using the correct OEM fastener prevents loosening, stripping, or housing damage over extended service cycles.

A cheese head screw is a cylindrical-head fastener with a flat top and straight sides, designed to sit within recessed bores or panel holes where a standard hex or pan head would interfere with adjacent components. In vibratory rammers like the BS50-2 and BS70-2i series, fasteners of this type are used to secure covers, housings, and internal assemblies that must withstand constant reciprocating forces without backing out. When a fastener of the wrong thread pitch, length, or head profile is substituted, it can result in stripped threads, loose panels, or accelerated wear on the surrounding material — all of which lead to more extensive repairs down the line. Using the correct Wacker Neuson 5000011716 replacement maintains the structural integrity the original design depends on.
