The Wacker Neuson 5100017488 is a genuine OEM Control Cable Kit designed for the RD16-90 and RD16-100 series tandem rollers. As a direct factory replacement, this kit ensures the control inputs between the operator station and the machine's drive and vibration systems are restored to original specification. Fitment has been verified across multiple RD16-90 and RD16-100 configurations, including hydrostatic vibratory roller variants. When control cable assemblies stretch, fray, or lose tension, operator response suffers — replacing the full kit at once gets the machine back to precise, predictable handling.
Key Features
- OEM-Grade Cable Construction — Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this kit is manufactured to the original cable tension tolerances and sheath specifications required for accurate roller control response.
- Complete Kit Replacement — Includes the full cable kit so all control lines are replaced together, eliminating the risk of mismatched cable wear across the system.
- Verified RD16 Series Fitment — Compatible with RD16-90 and RD16-100 tandem rollers, including standard, hydrostatic, and IRH vibratory configurations.
- Restores Operator Control Precision — Worn or stretched control cables cause sluggish or inconsistent response from drive and vibration controls; a fresh kit returns sharp, accurate input transfer.
- Operational Safety Relevance — On a self-propelled tandem roller, degraded control cables can compromise the operator's ability to make precise directional corrections on grade — correct cable tension is essential to safe machine handling.
Control cables on a tandem roller transmit mechanical input from the operator's levers and controls directly to the machine's drive, steering, and vibration systems. Over time, cable sheaths crack, inner wires fray, and tension is lost — leading to imprecise or delayed machine response. Replacing the full Control Cable Kit restores the direct mechanical link between operator and machine, ensuring the RD16-90 or RD16-100 responds accurately and consistently during asphalt and soil compaction passes.
