The Wacker Neuson Breather Tube is a genuine OEM component designed for the RD11AEC and RD11A hydrostatic double drum vibratory rollers. As a direct OEM replacement, this part is produced to the same specifications as the original, ensuring a correct fit within the machine's ventilation path. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, the is the authorized replacement for operators and service technicians maintaining RD11-series tandem rollers.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction: — Manufactured to original tube geometry and material spec, maintaining the correct bore size and flexibility required for the breather circuit.
- Direct OEM Replacement: — Designed to connect to existing fittings on the RD11AEC and RD11A without adaptation, slotting into the original mounting position.
- RD11 Series Fitment: — Confirmed compatibility with the RD11AEC and RD11A hydrostatic double drum vibratory rollers.
- Protects Internal Components: — A functioning breather tube allows pressure equalization within sealed assemblies, preventing moisture ingestion and pressure buildup that can damage seals and bearings over time.
- Fuel and Fluid System Integrity: — Proper venting prevents vacuum lock and pressure imbalances that can lead to fluid system faults on the hydrostatic drive circuit.
A breather tube allows air to move in and out of a sealed reservoir or housing as fluid levels and temperatures change during operation, preventing harmful pressure differentials from building up inside the assembly. On hydrostatic double drum vibratory rollers like the RD11AEC and RD11A, this venting function protects seals, bearings, and fluid reservoirs from premature wear caused by pressure imbalance. When a breather tube cracks, clogs, or fails, the resulting pressure buildup or vacuum can force contaminants past seals and accelerate internal component wear.
