The Wacker Neuson 5000117018 Hydraulic Cylinder is a genuine OEM hydraulic cylinder designed for the RT56-SC, RT82-SC, RTx-SC2, RTLx-SC3, RTKx-SC3, RTL82-SC3, RTK82-SC3, and HTC15 series remote-controlled vibratory trench rollers. As a factory-sourced component, the part meets the exact engineering specifications Wacker Neuson built into these machines, ensuring correct stroke length, port sizing, and mounting geometry. This cylinder is confirmed to fit across the full SC, SC2, and SC3 generation trench roller lineup, covering both standard and Compatec-equipped configurations. When you need a direct, no-guesswork replacement for a leaking or damaged hydraulic cylinder, the part is the correct part to order.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Hydraulic Integrity — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's exact bore, stroke, and seal-groove specifications so the cylinder delivers consistent hydraulic force and holds rated working pressure without bypass or drift.
- Drop-In Port and Mount Alignment — Hydraulic port threads, pivot-pin bores, and bracket mounting points match the original design exactly, allowing direct installation into the trench roller's articulation or steering circuit.
- Broad RT-Series Coverage — Fits RT56-SC, RT82-SC, RTx-SC2, RTLx-SC3, RTKx-SC3, RTL82-SC3, and RTK82-SC3 machines, including Compatec-equipped and EU-specification variants across SC, SC2, and SC3 generations.
- Restored Steering and Articulation Control — A failed or leaking hydraulic cylinder causes erratic steering, loss of articulation response, or a machine that cannot maintain a straight pass in the trench; replacing it restores full directional authority and compaction accuracy.
- Seal and Wiper Compatibility — Internal seals and external wiper rings are matched to the cylinder bore and rod finish from the factory, reducing the risk of premature seal failure caused by dimensional mismatches common with non-OEM alternatives.
The hydraulic cylinder on a remote-controlled trench roller is the actuator that converts hydraulic pressure into linear mechanical force, typically controlling the machine's articulation joint or steering circuit. When the operator commands a direction change, the hydraulic system pressurizes one side of the cylinder, extending or retracting the rod to pivot the machine's body sections relative to each other. A worn, scored, or seal-failed cylinder will cause the machine to wander, respond sluggishly to steering inputs, or drift off-line under drum load — all of which compromise compaction uniformity and trench-wall clearance on tight jobsites.
