The Wacker Neuson is a genuine OEM Connecting Rod Bushing designed for the RD27-100 and RD27-120 series hydrostatic vibratory rollers, including standard and traction control configurations. As a direct OEM replacement, part is manufactured to the exact tolerances required by the engine assembly, ensuring correct clearance between the connecting rod and crankpin for dependable operation. This bushing is confirmed compatible across multiple RD27 machine configurations, making it a straightforward service part for scheduled engine maintenance or repair. Keep a genuine Wacker Neuson on hand to restore your roller to full working condition with confidence.
Key Features
- OEM-Grade Bore Tolerancing — Manufactured to exact dimensional specs for the connecting rod bore, ensuring correct oil film thickness and load distribution at the crankpin interface.
- Drop-In Engine Fit — Engineered to install directly into the connecting rod assembly of RD27 series engines with no modification to mating components.
- Broad RD27 Series Coverage — Compatible with RD27-100 and RD27-120 hydrostatic vibratory rollers in both standard and traction control variants across multiple machine configurations.
- Protects Crankshaft Integrity — A correctly fitted bushing maintains proper rod-to-journal clearance; a worn or failed bushing accelerates crankshaft wear and can lead to catastrophic engine failure.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson OEM Part — Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, so the part number, material spec, and geometry match the original component your machine was built with.
The connecting rod bushing is a precision sleeve pressed into the small or big end of the connecting rod, providing a wear-resistant bearing surface between the rod and the crankpin or wrist pin. It absorbs the high reciprocating loads generated during each combustion cycle and maintains the critical oil clearance that keeps metal surfaces separated under pressure. When this bushing wears beyond its service limit, it causes increased play in the rod, leading to knocking, oil pressure loss, and accelerated damage to the crankshaft and piston — making timely replacement essential to engine longevity on your RD27 roller.
