The Wacker Neuson is a genuine OEM Foam Tube 7/8 I.D. x 790mm designed for the G150, G180, and G240 series mobile and skid-mounted portable generators. As a direct Wacker Neuson OEM part, the is manufactured to the exact dimensions and material grade specified for these generator platforms, ensuring a correct, trouble-free installation. Fitment covers an extensive range of G150, G180, and G240 configurations including standard mobile, cold weather, custom skid, and Deere Tier 3 variants. When your existing foam tube shows signs of compression set, cracking, or deterioration, replacing it with the correct OEM part keeps your generator's airflow management system functioning as intended.
Key Features
- OEM-Grade Foam Material — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's specified foam density and compression rating, maintaining consistent sealing and airflow channeling performance over the service life of the generator.
- Dimensionally Exact at 7/8 I.D. x 790mm — The precise inner diameter and length match the original routing path, allowing the tube to seat and secure without trimming or adjustment.
- Broad G-Series Generator Coverage — Confirmed fitment across G150, G180, and G240 generator families, including mobile, cold weather, custom skid, and Deere Tier 3 configurations.
- Preserves Proper Airflow Management — A correctly seated foam tube directs and isolates airflow within the generator enclosure; a collapsed or deteriorated tube allows uncontrolled air bypass, which can affect cooling efficiency and noise attenuation.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson OEM Part — Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, carrying the full OEM part number 5000179220 for straightforward cross-referencing against your machine's parts manual.
The foam tube serves as a flexible airflow management and sealing component within the generator enclosure. It channels or isolates air between sections of the unit — whether directing cooling air, sealing around ducting, or preventing recirculation of hot exhaust air into intake zones — depending on its position in the assembly. Over time, foam degrades through heat cycling, compression, and exposure to oils or cleaning agents, causing it to lose its shape and sealing ability. Replacing a worn foam tube restores the designed airflow path, protecting the engine and electrical components from heat-related stress and maintaining the generator's rated output capacity.
