The Wacker Neuson is a genuine OEM Steering Cylinder Assembly designed for RD12, RD16, and CB14B series tandem and vibratory rollers. As a direct Wacker Neuson OEM component, part is manufactured to the same specifications as the original unit installed at the factory, ensuring a correct hydraulic fit within the articulated steering circuit. This assembly is confirmed compatible across multiple configurations of the RD12, RD16, and CB14B series, covering both standard and foldable ROPS variants as well as hydrostatic drive models.
Key Features
- OEM Hydraulic Precision — Manufactured to exact bore, stroke, and port specifications so the cylinder delivers consistent steering force and response without pressure loss or drift.
- Direct Hydraulic Connection — Mounts to the articulation joint using the original hydraulic line ports and pivot attachment points, requiring no modification to the existing steering circuit.
- Broad RD and CB Series Coverage — Fits RD12-90, RD12A-90, RD16-90, and RD16-100 tandem rollers in standard, foldable ROPS, and hydrostatic configurations, as well as CB14B-900 and CB14B-1000 soil and asphalt compaction rollers.
- Restored Articulation Control — A correctly functioning steering cylinder gives the operator smooth, predictable articulation across compaction passes; a worn or leaking cylinder causes sluggish or uneven steering response that affects pass accuracy and operator safety.
- Hydraulic Seal Integrity — As a pressurized hydraulic actuator, a failed or bypassing steering cylinder can result in loss of directional control on grade or during compaction passes, making timely replacement with a correct OEM unit critical.
The steering cylinder assembly is the hydraulic actuator that controls articulation on tandem rollers and vibratory compaction equipment. It extends and retracts under hydraulic pressure to pivot the front and rear frames relative to each other, allowing the operator to steer the machine smoothly through compaction passes. When this cylinder develops internal bypass, seal wear, or physical damage, steering becomes inconsistent or unresponsive — compromising pattern accuracy, increasing operator effort, and in severe cases creating a directional control hazard on sloped or confined work areas.
