The Wacker Neuson is a genuine OEM Metering Cover Screw designed for the BS50-2, BS50-2i, BS52Y, BS60-2, and BS60-2i series gasoline vibratory rammers. As a direct OEM replacement, part is manufactured to the same specifications as the original component installed at the factory, ensuring a proper fit in the carburetor's metering cover assembly. This screw is confirmed compatible across a wide range of BS-series rammer configurations, including standard, oil-injected, and EU-spec variants with shoe sizes ranging from 6 inches to 11 inches.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Thread Integrity — Manufactured to exact thread pitch and torque specifications for the metering cover application, preventing air or fuel leaks at the carburetor interface.
- Drop-In Replacement — Installs directly into the existing metering cover bore with no reworking of the carburetor body required.
- Broad BS-Series Compatibility — Fits BS50-2, BS50-2i, BS52Y, BS60-2, and BS60-2i rammers across standard, oil-injected, and EU-spec configurations.
- Fuel System Precision — A correctly seated metering cover screw maintains the carburetor's fuel-metering circuit, keeping the air-fuel mixture consistent and the engine running at proper power output.
- Fuel System Safety — A stripped or missing metering cover screw can allow uncontrolled fuel seepage inside the carburetor, creating a potential fire hazard on an operating machine; replacing it promptly is a direct safety measure.
The metering cover screw secures the diaphragm cover on the fuel-metering side of the carburetor, sealing the chamber where the inlet needle and metering diaphragm regulate fuel delivery to the engine. If this screw is stripped, cross-threaded, or lost, the metering cover cannot maintain a proper seal, which disrupts the fuel-metering circuit and causes symptoms such as hard starting, erratic idle, loss of power, or fuel weeping from the carburetor body. Replacing it with the correct OEM fastener restores the sealed metering environment the carburetor depends on for consistent engine performance.
