The Wacker Neuson Spring is a genuine OEM component designed for DS70 and DS720 series diesel vibratory rammers. As a direct factory replacement, this spring is built to the same specifications as the original part installed at the time of manufacture, ensuring consistent performance across the DS70 and DS720 rammer lineup. Fitment covers a wide range of DS70 and DS720 configurations, including 280mm/11in and 330mm/13in shoe variants, EPA-compliant models, and the DS70Y.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Spring Rate Integrity — Manufactured to the exact tension and load specifications of the original, maintaining correct reciprocating action within the rammer's drive system.
- Drop-In Replacement — Matches the original mounting points and geometry of the DS70 and DS720, allowing installation without modification to surrounding components.
- Broad DS70 and DS720 Fitment — Covers 11in and 13in shoe configurations, EPA-rated models, red-shoe variants, and the DS70Y, making it a versatile stocking part for mixed fleets.
- Supports Consistent Compaction Output — A properly tensioned spring helps sustain the rammer's impact force and stroke frequency; a fatigued or broken spring causes irregular blows and reduced compaction effectiveness in trench and cohesive soil applications.
- Backed by Wacker Neuson OEM Sourcing — Sourced through the Wacker Neuson authorized parts network, this component meets the same material and dimensional standards as the part it replaces.
The spring in a diesel vibratory rammer plays a critical role in the machine's reciprocating mechanism, storing and releasing energy to drive the consistent up-and-down impact stroke that compacts cohesive soils and trench backfill. When the spring loses tension through fatigue or fractures entirely, the rammer's stroke becomes inconsistent or ceases altogether, leaving compaction work incomplete and the machine out of service. Replacing a worn spring promptly restores the correct impact rhythm and keeps the rammer performing to its rated output.
