The Wacker Neuson Ring Gear is a genuine OEM component designed for the RT560, RT820, and RT820HT vibratory trench rollers, as well as the DPU 9070 and DPU 100-70 reversible vibratory plate compactors. Sourced directly through Wacker Neuson's authorized parts program, this ring gear is manufactured to the same specifications as the original part installed at the factory. It is a direct replacement for worn or damaged ring gears across multiple RT-series and DPU-series machines, covering a broad range of serial number configurations. If you're servicing a trench roller or heavy-duty reversible plate and need a verified fitment part, the is the correct OEM choice.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Tooth Profile and Material Grade — Manufactured to the exact hardness and tooth geometry specified for the original drive system, ensuring proper mesh and load transfer under compaction stress.
- Drop-In Replacement — Matches the original mounting interface and bore dimensions of the RT560, RT820, RT820HT, DPU 9070, and DPU 100-70, allowing straightforward installation without machining or modification.
- Broad Fitment Coverage — Compatible across multiple serial number ranges of the RT560 and RT820 trench roller family and the DPU 100-70 and DPU 9070 reversible vibratory plate compactor family.
- Sustained Drive System Integrity — A worn or cracked ring gear causes loss of drive engagement, erratic drum or plate movement, and accelerated damage to mating gears — replacing it promptly restores full compaction output.
- Authorized OEM Sourcing — Supplied through Wacker Neuson's official parts network, carrying the correct part number 5000096397 for confident ordering and inventory accuracy.
The ring gear is a critical component in the machine's drive train, transferring rotational force from the drive motor to the drum or eccentric shaft that generates compaction energy. In trench rollers such as the RT560 and RT820, it enables the padfoot drums to be driven forward and in reverse with the torque needed to compact cohesive soils in tight trenches. In reversible vibratory plates like the DPU 100-70, it plays a similar role in transmitting drive power to enable controlled forward and reverse travel under load. When the ring gear wears, chips, or fails, drive engagement becomes inconsistent or lost entirely, preventing the machine from delivering effective compaction force and potentially causing secondary damage to adjacent drivetrain components.
