The Wacker Neuson 5100012480 is a genuine OEM Greasing Nipple designed for the RC50, RC70, and RC110 single-drum soil compactor series and the RD24, RD27, and RD28 tandem roller series. As a direct OEM replacement, the 5100012480 is manufactured to the same specifications as the original component, ensuring a correct, trouble-free installation on your machine. This nipple fits an extensive range of configurations across both compactor and roller families, including padfoot, cab, ROPS, DPF, and electric variants. Verify your machine model and serial number before ordering to confirm this is the right part for your application.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction: — Manufactured to the original thread pitch and body dimensions, so the nipple seats correctly and accepts a standard grease gun fitting without leaking or cross-threading.
- Direct-Fit Replacement: — Threads directly into the existing port on your machine with no rework to surrounding components, maintaining the integrity of the lubrication point.
- Broad Fitment Across Compaction Equipment: — Compatible with RC50, RC70, and RC110 single-drum soil compactors and RD24-100, RD27-120, and RD28-120 tandem rollers in standard, padfoot, cab, ROPS, DPF, and electric configurations.
- Protects Critical Bearings and Pivots: — A functioning greasing nipple is what allows grease to reach bearings, drum shafts, and articulation points; a damaged or seized nipple blocks lubrication entirely and accelerates wear on those components.
- Part Number Verified: — OEM part number 5100012480 is confirmed against Wacker Neuson parts documentation for the listed RC and RD series machines.
A greasing nipple — also called a grease fitting or zerk fitting — is the threaded access point through which grease is injected into a bearing housing, pivot joint, or rotating assembly. On single-drum soil compactors and tandem rollers, these fittings service high-load points such as drum bearings, articulation joints, and eccentric shaft housings that are exposed to constant vibration and heavy operating loads. When a nipple becomes damaged, blocked, or stripped, grease cannot enter the lubrication point, which leads to accelerated wear, overheating, and eventual component failure. Replacing a faulty nipple promptly is one of the simplest and most cost-effective steps in a preventive maintenance routine.
