The Wacker Neuson M5X25 8.8 Socket Screw is a genuine OEM fastener designed for the RT560 and RT820 vibratory trench rollers. As a direct Wacker Neuson OEM part, the meets the original engineering specifications for thread pitch, head geometry, and grade 8.8 tensile strength. This screw is confirmed to fit both the RT560 and RT820 trench roller models, making it straightforward to source the correct fastener for your machine. Keep a verified OEM replacement on hand to avoid hold-ups during scheduled maintenance or field repairs.
Key Features
- Grade 8.8 Tensile Strength — Medium-carbon steel construction with the rated 8.8 strength class ensures the fastener can handle the clamping loads and vibration exposure typical of trench roller operation.
- Hex Socket Drive — Internal hex socket head allows controlled torque application with a standard Allen key or hex bit, reducing the risk of rounding the drive during installation or removal.
- Genuine OEM Part — Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, part number 5000117495 matches the original M5x25 thread specification and dimensional tolerances called out in the factory service documentation.
- Confirmed Trench Roller Fitment — Verified for RT560 and RT820 vibratory trench roller models, covering multiple serial number ranges within each series.
- Maintains Structural Integrity Under Vibration — A correctly torqued, properly graded fastener prevents loosening and joint failure on a machine that generates continuous compaction vibration; an undersized or incorrect-grade substitute risks joint movement and component damage over time.
A socket screw is a threaded fastener used to clamp or secure machine components together, with the internal hex drive allowing precise torque application in tight or recessed locations. On vibratory trench rollers like the RT560 and RT820, fasteners are subjected to constant vibration forces that can accelerate loosening if the screw's grade or thread form is not correct for the application. Using the correct OEM-specified part helps maintain proper clamping force, protecting the surrounding components and keeping the machine operating as designed.
