The Wacker Neuson Screw M5 X 12 is a genuine OEM fastener designed for the GP, GPS, and GV series portable generators, covering a wide range of models including the GP2500A, GP3800A, GP5600A, GP6600A, GPS5600A, GPS6600A, GV3800A, GV5600A, and GV6600A. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this screw is manufactured to the exact dimensions and material specifications of the original hardware used on the production line. It drops into place exactly as the factory-installed fastener did, with no fitting, modification, or guesswork required. Whether you are completing a scheduled service, a panel repair, or a component replacement on your generator, having the correct OEM fastener on hand keeps the job moving.
Key Features
- Correct Thread Form and Head Geometry — M5 x 12 sizing matches the original fastener exactly, ensuring proper torque transfer and secure clamping without thread damage or stripping.
- Genuine OEM Hardware — Supplied by Wacker Neuson as a genuine OEM part, built from the same material specification as the fastener originally installed at the factory.
- Broad Generator Series Coverage — Compatible across the GP, GPS, and GV portable generator families, including GP2500A, GP3800A, GP5600A, GP6600A, GPS5600A, GPS6600A, and GV-series models.
- Maintains Structural Integrity of Assembled Components — A correctly specified screw holds panels, guards, and sub-assemblies securely in place; an incorrect or worn fastener can lead to vibration-induced loosening during generator operation.
- Part Number Confidence — Order by Wacker Neuson part number 5000162472 to confirm you are receiving the exact replacement hardware for your generator model.
A machine screw such as the M5 x 12 is a threaded fastener used to clamp and secure components — panels, brackets, covers, or sub-assemblies — by threading into a tapped hole or mating nut. On portable generators, fasteners like this one are used throughout the chassis, housing, and component-mounting locations where consistent clamping force is essential to keep parts properly aligned and vibration-resistant during operation. Using a fastener with incorrect thread pitch, diameter, or length risks cross-threading, insufficient clamping load, or panel loosening over time, all of which can compromise the assembly's structural integrity and lead to additional component wear.
