The Wacker Neuson Torsion Spring is a genuine OEM component designed for the DS70 and DS720 diesel vibratory rammer series. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this spring meets the exact specifications of the original part, ensuring consistent performance in the field. It fits across multiple DS70 and DS720 configurations, including 11-inch and 13-inch shoe variants, EPA-compliant models, and the DS70Y series. When your rammer's torsion spring is worn or broken, replacing it with the correct OEM part restores the machine's full compaction output and protects the surrounding drivetrain components from added stress.
Key Features
- OEM Spring Rate Accuracy — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original torsion specification, delivering the correct stored and released energy needed for consistent rammer stroke performance.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Engineered to the same dimensions and mounting profile as the original, fitting into the spring seat without modification or adjustment.
- Broad DS70 and DS720 Fitment — Compatible with a wide range of DS70 and DS720 diesel rammer configurations, including 280mm/11-inch and 330mm/13-inch shoe models across EPA and standard variants.
- Sustained Compaction Rhythm — A properly functioning torsion spring maintains the rammer's cyclic impact energy; a fatigued or broken spring reduces blow frequency and compaction depth.
- Genuine OEM Reliability — Backed by Wacker Neuson's quality standards, this is the same part specified for production and authorized service repairs on the DS rammer line.
The torsion spring in a diesel vibratory rammer stores and releases rotational energy as part of the machine's impact mechanism, contributing to the rhythmic up-and-down stroke that drives compaction force into the soil. It works in coordination with the crankshaft and foot assembly to maintain consistent blow rate and penetration depth in trench and cohesive soil applications. When the spring fatigues, cracks, or breaks, the rammer loses stroke consistency, compaction output drops noticeably, and continued operation can place undue load on adjacent drivetrain components.
