The Wacker Neuson Guide Cylinder is a genuine OEM component designed for the BS70-2, BS70-2i, BS70-4As, BS700, BS700-oi, DS70, MS62, and MS64A series vibratory rammers and jumping jacks. As a factory-sourced part, it meets the exact tolerances and material specifications required for proper rammer operation. This part covers an extensive range of shoe configurations — including 280 mm, 330 mm, and 356 mm shoe variants — across both standard and oil-injected models. Confirm your model number and machine number before ordering to ensure a correct application match.
Key Features
- Factory-Correct Bore and Wall Tolerances — Manufactured to OEM specification, ensuring the cylinder bore dimensions match the piston travel path precisely for smooth, controlled ramming action.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson OEM Part — Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, part number 5000117479 carries the same quality and traceability as the component installed at the factory.
- Broad Rammer Family Coverage — Fits BS70-2, BS70-2i, BS70-4As, BS700, BS700-oi, DS70, MS62, and MS64A models, spanning standard gasoline, oil-injected, diesel, and select battery-assisted rammer variants.
- Supports Full Compaction Output — A worn or damaged guide cylinder allows piston misalignment, causing loss of impact force, uneven compaction, and accelerated internal wear across adjacent components.
- Drop-In Replacement for Multiple Shoe Sizes — Compatible with 280 mm / 11 in, 330 mm / 13 in, and 356 mm / 14 in shoe configurations, making this a single-part solution across a wide range of BS-series builds.
The guide cylinder is a core structural component within the rammer's percussion mechanism. It channels and constrains the reciprocating piston along a precise linear path, ensuring that every stroke delivers maximum downward impact force to the shoe and into the compaction surface. Without a correctly dimensioned guide cylinder, the piston loses alignment, impact energy is dissipated unevenly, and wear on the piston, seals, and lower housing accelerates rapidly. On a heavily used rammer, a scored or out-of-tolerance guide cylinder is a common root cause of reduced compaction performance and increased vibration at the operator handles.
