The Wacker Neuson is a genuine OEM Positive Battery Cable designed for RD27-100 and RD27-120 series hydrostatic vibratory rollers. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this cable meets the original electrical specifications for the RD27 tandem roller platform, ensuring a correct, reliable connection between the battery and the machine's electrical system. It is a direct replacement for the factory-installed cable on RD27-100 and RD27-120 machines, covering both configuration variants within each series.
Key Features
- OEM-Spec Conductor and Terminal Construction — Built to the original gauge, length, and terminal configuration specified for the RD27 platform, ensuring correct current-carrying capacity and terminal seating.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Matches the factory routing and connector points on RD27-100 and RD27-120 rollers, so installation follows the original wiring layout without adaptation.
- Verified Fitment for RD27-100 and RD27-120 — Confirmed compatibility across RD27-100 and RD27-120 hydrostatic vibratory roller configurations, including both machine number variants in each series.
- Protects Electrical System Integrity — A correctly rated positive battery cable maintains stable voltage supply to the starter, hydraulic controls, and instrumentation; a degraded cable can cause intermittent starting failures or voltage drop under load.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson OEM Part — Carries part number 5000161718 as issued by Wacker Neuson, giving you traceability and confidence that the part matches the original design intent for the RD27 roller family.
The positive battery cable is the primary conductor that carries current from the battery's positive terminal to the machine's starter motor and main electrical distribution point. On a hydrostatic vibratory roller like the RD27, a reliable electrical supply is essential for consistent engine starting and stable operation of the hydraulic drive and vibration systems. When a positive battery cable corrodes, cracks, or loses terminal contact, the result can range from slow or failed engine cranking to erratic behavior in the machine's electrical and hydraulic controls.
