The Wacker Neuson is a genuine OEM Socket Head Screw designed for the CRT48 series ride-on concrete trowels, including the CRT48-35L, CRT48-35V, CRT48-37V, CRT48-33K, CRT48-34V, CRT48-31V, and CRT48-57K. As a direct factory replacement, this fastener meets the exact material grade, thread specification, and head geometry called out in the original equipment build. Keeping genuine hardware on your CRT48 trowel matters — substituting an incorrect fastener can lead to loosening under vibration or damage to mating components. Source part number to restore your machine to factory configuration with confidence.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Material Grade — Manufactured to the exact hardness and tensile rating specified for the CRT48 platform, ensuring the fastener holds torque and resists loosening under the sustained vibration loads of ride-on trowel operation.
- Correct Thread Form and Head Geometry — Matches the original socket head profile exactly, seating flush with mating surfaces and accepting the correct drive tool without risk of cam-out or stripped sockets.
- Broad CRT48 Series Coverage — Fits multiple CRT48 configurations including the CRT48-33K, CRT48-33K DF (Dual-Fuel), CRT48-34V, CRT48-35L, CRT48-35V, CRT48-37V, and CRT48-57K ride-on concrete trowels.
- Structural Integrity at the Point of Connection — A fastener that has stretched, corroded, or been replaced with an off-spec substitute can allow critical assemblies to shift during operation; the correct OEM screw maintains the clamping force those joints depend on.
- Direct OEM Sourcing — Supplied as a Wacker Neuson genuine part, so the part number, specification, and packaging are traceable back to the original equipment manufacturer.
A socket head screw is a precision fastener distinguished by its cylindrical head and internal hexagonal drive socket, which allows high clamping torques to be applied in confined spaces where a conventional bolt head would not fit. On ride-on concrete trowels like the CRT48 series, fasteners of this type are used throughout the machine to secure guards, drive components, and structural assemblies that must stay positively locked despite continuous vibration and mechanical stress during finishing operations. When a socket head screw loosens, stretches, or fails, the assembly it secures can shift, creating misalignment, accelerated wear on adjacent components, or — in the case of safety-critical joints — an unsafe operating condition. Replacing a worn or damaged screw with the correct OEM part, part number 5000172970, restores the designed clamping load and keeps the machine running as intended.
