The Wacker Neuson Valve Cover Gasket is a genuine OEM component designed for RD27-100 and RD27-120 series hydrostatic vibratory tandem rollers. As a direct-fit OEM part, it meets the exact material and compression specifications required for the engine on these machines. Whether your roller is equipped with standard or traction control configuration, this gasket covers the full RD27 production run across both drum-width variants. Keep your engine sealed and your machine running clean with the correct part for the job.
Key Features
- OEM-Grade Sealing Material — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original material specification, ensuring the correct compression set and temperature resistance for the RD27 engine's valve cover interface.
- Drop-In Replacement — Engineered to match the original gasket profile exactly, seating correctly against the valve cover and cylinder head mating surfaces without trimming or modification.
- Broad RD27 Coverage — Fits RD27-100 and RD27-120 tandem rollers in both standard and traction control configurations across multiple production runs.
- Prevents Oil Leaks at the Valve Cover — A failed or compressed-out gasket allows engine oil to seep past the valve cover, creating contamination risk and masking other potential issues. This replacement restores a clean, leak-free seal.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson Part — Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, so the part number, fitment, and material grade are verified against the original bill of materials for these roller models.
The valve cover gasket forms the seal between the engine's valve cover and the top of the cylinder head, preventing engine oil from escaping at that joint. Over time and through heat cycling, the gasket material compresses and hardens, losing its ability to hold a proper seal — resulting in oil weeping or dripping from the top of the engine. Replacing a worn valve cover gasket on your RD27 tandem roller restores the engine oil seal, keeps the engine bay clean, and prevents the kind of slow oil loss that can go unnoticed until more serious damage occurs.
