Wacker Neuson 5000070796 Screw 5/16-24 X 1-1/2 St Socket Head

The Wacker Neuson is a genuine OEM Screw 5/16-24 X 1-1/2 St Socket Head designed for the PT2B, PT2R, and PTK2 series 50mm/2-inch centrifugal trash pumps. As a direct OEM replacement, this fastener is sourced from Wacker Neuson to match the original hardware specification exactly, giving you confidence that it will seat and torque correctly in the application. Whether you are completing a routine service or rebuilding a pump assembly, using the correct fastener keeps every connected component properly secured and aligned. This screw is also compatible with the PTK2 bare pump unit (without engine), making it a useful stock item across your PT2 pump fleet.

Key Features

• Genuine OEM Hardware Grade — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original thread class and steel specification, ensuring consistent clamping force without risk of stripping or fastener fatigue under pump vibration.
• 5/16-24 Fine-Thread Socket Drive — The fine-thread pitch and internal hex socket head allow precise torque application in tight pump housing locations where a standard hex head wrench won't fit.
• Fits PT2B, PT2R, and PTK2 Pump Series — Confirmed for Wacker Neuson 50mm/2-inch centrifugal trash pumps including the PTK2 engine-less base unit, covering multiple build configurations within the PT2 family.
• Correct Steel Material for Wet Environments — Specified in steel (St) to match the original pump hardware, maintaining structural integrity in the demanding, moisture-exposed conditions typical of trash pump operation.
• Direct OEM Sourced Replacement — Part number 5000070796 is the factory-designated fastener for these pumps, eliminating guesswork when ordering replacement hardware during a pump disassembly or repair.

A socket head cap screw like the Wacker Neuson 5000070796 is a precision fastener used to clamp pump housing components, covers, or bracket assemblies together with controlled torque through an internal hex drive. In a trash pump application, fasteners are subjected to continuous vibration from the engine and impeller, meaning an incorrect thread pitch, length, or material grade can lead to loosening, housing misalignment, or damaged threads over time. Replacing worn or damaged screws with the correct OEM-specified hardware restores the mechanical integrity of the assembly and prevents fluid leaks or component movement during operation.
