The Wacker Neuson Link is a genuine OEM component designed for RT560 and RT820 series vibratory trench rollers, as well as PT6LT and PT6LS series trash pumps. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this Link is manufactured to the same specifications as the original part installed at the factory. Confirmed fitment spans multiple machine numbers across the RT560, RT820, and RT820HT trench roller families, along with the PT6LT pump with trailer and the PT6LS skid-mounted centrifugal trash pump. When exact part matching matters, choosing the genuine OEM keeps your equipment running as intended.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction: — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original dimensional and material specifications, ensuring the link interfaces correctly with mating components without play or premature wear.
- Direct-Fit Replacement: — Matches the original mounting points and connection geometry of the 5000082278, dropping straight into place on supported models with no rework needed.
- Broad Fitment Coverage: — Confirmed compatible with RT560, RT820, and RT820HT vibratory trench rollers across multiple machine configurations, plus PT6LT and PT6LS pump units.
- Maintains Mechanical Integrity: — A correctly functioning link preserves proper load transfer and articulation within the assembly; a worn or failed link can introduce slack, misalignment, or loss of controlled movement.
- Verified Part Number: — Order with confidence using OEM part number 5000082278 to ensure you receive the correct link for your specific machine configuration.
A link is a rigid or semi-rigid connecting element that transfers motion, load, or positional control between two points in a mechanical assembly. In trench rollers such as the RT560 and RT820 series, links are commonly used within steering, articulation, or control rod systems to transmit input forces accurately and maintain the correct geometric relationship between components. When a link stretches, cracks, or develops wear at its connection points, it can introduce slop into the system it controls — leading to imprecise machine response or accelerated wear on adjacent components. Replacing a worn link promptly with the correct OEM part restores the intended mechanical relationship and prevents secondary damage.
