The Wacker Neuson Camshaft Complete is a genuine OEM component designed for the RD27-100 and RD27-120 hydrostatic vibratory tandem rollers. As a direct factory replacement, this part is manufactured to the exact specifications required by Wacker Neuson and drops straight into the engine without the need for secondary sourcing of individual camshaft components. Whether you are performing scheduled engine maintenance or replacing a worn unit, the ensures the valve train operates exactly as Wacker Neuson intended for these compact tandem roller models.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Camshaft Integrity — Precision-ground lobe profiles and journal dimensions match the original factory part, ensuring correct valve lift and timing from the first start.
- Complete Assembly — Supplied as a Camshaft Complete unit, so all associated components are included and ready to install as a single matched set.
- Confirmed Fitment for RD27 Tandem Rollers — Verified for the RD27-100 and RD27-120 hydrostatic vibratory rollers, covering both machine configurations within the RD27 series.
- Sustained Engine Performance — A correctly functioning camshaft maintains precise valve timing, which directly supports full engine power output and smooth operation during compaction passes on asphalt and soil.
- Direct Engine Replacement — Installs into the existing camshaft bore using the original mounting configuration, keeping engine teardown time to a minimum.
The camshaft is a core engine component responsible for controlling the opening and closing of the intake and exhaust valves in sequence with the pistons. It works directly off the crankshaft and dictates when fuel and air enter the combustion chamber and when exhaust gases are expelled. When a camshaft wears or develops damage to its lobes, valve timing becomes erratic, resulting in loss of power, rough running, increased fuel consumption, and — if left unaddressed — potential damage to the valvetrain and cylinder head. Replacing the camshaft with a complete genuine OEM assembly restores proper valve event timing and protects the surrounding engine components from further wear.
