The Wacker Neuson Camshaft Gear is a genuine OEM component designed for the RD27-100 and RD27-120 Hydrostatic Vibratory Rollers. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this part meets the exact tolerances and material specifications required for the engine timing system on these tandem roller models. Confirm your machine's model number before ordering to ensure a direct, correct-fit installation.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Tooth Profile and Material Grade — manufactured to the precise gear geometry and hardness specification required for accurate camshaft timing in the RD27 engine.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — engineered to align with the existing camshaft and timing drive layout, allowing straightforward installation without modification to surrounding components.
- Confirmed Fitment for RD27 Tandem Rollers — verified for the RD27-100 and RD27-120 Hydrostatic Vibratory Roller models.
- Preserves Valve Timing Accuracy — a correctly fitted camshaft gear maintains precise valve timing, supporting optimal combustion efficiency and consistent engine power output during compaction work.
- Prevents Accelerated Drivetrain Wear — a worn or damaged camshaft gear can cause timing deviation, leading to rough running, loss of power, and potential damage to valves or the timing drive assembly.
The camshaft gear is a core component of the engine's valve timing system. It meshes with the crankshaft drive to rotate the camshaft at precisely half the crankshaft speed, controlling when the intake and exhaust valves open and close in relation to piston movement. When this gear wears, chips, or loses tooth integrity, valve timing drifts — causing the engine to run rough, lose power, or fail to start reliably. On a hydrostatic vibratory roller like the RD27, where consistent engine output directly drives both propulsion and drum vibration, maintaining correct camshaft gear condition is essential to keeping the machine performing on the asphalt or soil surface.
