The Wacker Neuson Screw M5X30 is a genuine OEM fastener designed for Wacker Neuson portable generator series including the GPS9700, GPS8500, GS8.5V, G3.3A, G4.6A, GS4.6A, G5.6A, GS5.6A, and G2.5A. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this screw carries the exact dimensions, thread pitch, and material grade specified for these machines. It fits across both standard and electric-start generator configurations, covering 50Hz and EPA-compliant variants in the lineup. When you need to restore a secure connection during service or repair, part number is the correct, verified replacement.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Thread and Dimensional Accuracy — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's exact M5x30 specification, ensuring correct thread engagement and clamping force for the fastened joint.
- Direct Drop-In Installation — Matches the original hardware profile exactly, seating flush with factory torque values and requiring no reworking of the mating components.
- Broad Generator Series Coverage — Confirmed fit across GPS9700, GPS8500, GS8.5V, G3.3A, G3.3AE, G3.3AI, G3.3AIT, G4.6A, G4.6AE, GS4.6A, GS4.6AE, G5.6A, GS5.6A, and G2.5A portable generator models.
- Structural Integrity Under Vibration — Generator operation produces sustained mechanical vibration; a correctly specified fastener maintains joint tension and prevents component loosening over extended run time.
- Verified Part Number — Ordering by Wacker Neuson part number 5000116462 eliminates the guesswork of matching generic hardware sizes to application-specific requirements.
A machine screw like the M5x30 is a threaded fastener used to clamp or secure components together within an assembly — the M5 designation indicates a 5mm nominal thread diameter, and 30 refers to the 30mm shank length. In a portable generator, fasteners like this are used throughout the frame, enclosure, and internal component mounts to keep parts aligned and firmly in place during operation. When a fastener stretches, strips, or goes missing, the affected joint can loosen under vibration, leading to misalignment, rattling, or component damage over time — making prompt replacement with the correct OEM-spec hardware essential.
