The Wacker Neuson is a genuine OEM Left Exciter Weight designed for the RT and RTL/RTK series remote-controlled vibratory trench rollers. This includes the RT56-SC, RT82-SC, RT82-SC2, RTx-SC2, RTLx-SC3, RTL82-SC3, RTKx-SC3, and RTK82-SC3 series, as well as the HTC15 trench roller. As a direct OEM replacement sourced from Wacker Neuson, part is manufactured to the same specification as the original component. Keeping the exciter assembly correctly weighted and balanced is essential to sustaining the compaction force these machines are built to deliver in trench and cohesive soil applications.
Key Features
- OEM-Matched Mass and Balance: — Cast to the same weight specification as the original, ensuring the exciter assembly maintains its designed rotational balance and compaction output.
- Drop-In Installation: — Engineered to match the original mounting geometry on the exciter shaft, fitting directly into the exciter housing without reworking existing hardware.
- Broad RT Series Coverage: — Compatible with RT56-SC, RT82-SC, RT82-SC2, RTx-SC2, RTLx-SC3, RTL82-SC3, RTKx-SC3, RTK82-SC3, and HTC15 trench roller configurations, including Compatec-equipped variants.
- Sustained Compaction Force: — A correctly weighted exciter delivers consistent vibration amplitude; a worn or incorrect weight reduces centrifugal force, causing uneven or insufficient compaction in trench work.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson OEM Part: — Supplied as a genuine OEM component, manufactured under the same quality controls as the original production part to match material grade and dimensional tolerances.
The exciter weight is one half of the rotating eccentric mass system inside the drum's exciter housing. As the exciter shaft spins, the offset mass generates centrifugal force, which is what produces the vibratory compaction action transmitted through the drum into the soil. On a trench roller like the RT and RTL/RTK series, this vibration is what allows the machine to densify cohesive soils and trench backfill that static weight alone cannot adequately compact. If an exciter weight is damaged, missing, or replaced with an incorrectly massed component, the eccentric balance is disrupted — reducing amplitude, causing abnormal bearing loads, and ultimately delivering inconsistent compaction results that may not meet specification.
