The Wacker Neuson Cheese Head Screw is a genuine OEM Cheese Head Screw designed for the RCP-12 and RCE-16 series rebar cutters. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this part meets the same specifications as the original hardware installed at the factory, ensuring a drop-in fit with no guesswork. It is compatible across multiple voltage and frequency configurations, including the RCP-12/230 50 Hz, RCP-12/120 60 Hz, RCP-12/115, RCE-16/120, and RCE-16/115 models. When you need a confirmed OEM replacement to get your rebar cutter back in service, part is the correct choice.
Key Features
- OEM Thread and Head Geometry — Manufactured to the exact head profile and thread specification of the original, so the screw seats and torques correctly without stripping or misalignment.
- Direct Hardware Replacement — Installs in the same position and orientation as the original screw, with no drilling, tapping, or hardware modification needed.
- Broad RCP-12 and RCE-16 Coverage — Fits the full range of RCP-12 and RCE-16 rebar cutter configurations, including 50 Hz, 60 Hz, 115 V, and 120 V variants.
- Maintains Structural Integrity — A correctly fitted fastener keeps internal components properly secured, preventing unwanted movement that can accelerate wear on surrounding parts.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson Part — Part number 5000217047 is an authorized OEM component, giving you confidence that material grade and dimensional tolerances match the original assembly.
A cheese head screw is a cylindrical-headed fastener commonly used to secure internal housings, covers, and mechanical assemblies inside power tools and cutting equipment. The distinctive flat-topped, straight-sided head provides a clean clamping surface and resists cam-out under the torque loads typical in a compact rebar cutter. When this fastener loosens, backs out, or fails, it can allow internal components to shift during operation, leading to accelerated wear, vibration, and potential damage to surrounding parts. Replacing a worn or missing fastener promptly with the correct OEM part restores the assembly to its intended clamping load and keeps the cutter operating as designed.
