The Wacker Neuson Gas Spring Cylinder is a genuine OEM component designed for the RD27-100 and RD27-120 tandem roller series, including Pro and Basic T4F configurations. As a direct factory part, it meets the exact specifications required for proper hood, access panel, or articulation support on these ride-on rollers. Wacker Neuson's OEM designation ensures this cylinder matches the original assembly geometry and gas charge for correct operation. If your RD27 is due for scheduled maintenance or a gas spring has lost tension, part number is the confirmed replacement.
Key Features
- Correct Gas Charge for Tandem Roller Duty — engineered to the precise pressure specification required to support hood or panel loads on the RD27 platform, preventing sag or uncontrolled movement.
- Genuine OEM Part — sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, ensuring the 5200002420 matches original bore, stroke, end-fitting dimensions, and mounting hardware interfaces without adaptation.
- Broad RD27 Series Coverage — confirmed fitment across RD27-100 and RD27-120 variants, including Hydrostatic Vibratory Roller builds, Ride-On Roller configurations, and both Pro and Basic T4F models.
- Smooth, Controlled Panel Operation — a correctly pressurized gas spring holds panels securely open during service access, keeping hands free and reducing strain on hinges and latches over time.
- Safety-Relevant Component — a failed or under-pressurized gas spring can allow access panels to drop unexpectedly during maintenance; replacing a worn cylinder with the correct OEM part restores safe, controlled movement.
A gas spring cylinder is a sealed, nitrogen-pressurized strut used to assist in opening and holding access panels, engine hoods, or hinged covers in the raised position. Unlike a standard mechanical spring, it provides smooth, controlled resistance throughout its full travel and holds a set load without manual support. When a gas spring loses pressure — through seal wear or physical damage — panels become heavy to lift, fail to stay open, or drop without warning, creating a hazard during routine service work on the roller.
