The Wacker Neuson Grooved Ball Bearing 6304 is a genuine OEM Grooved Ball Bearing 6304 designed for the AR 34 series external vibrators, including the AR 34/6/042, AR 34/6/250, AR 34/3/400, AR 34/3/230 v, and AR 34/3,6/230 models. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this is the same bearing supplied in original production — ensuring it meets the exact tolerancing and load ratings specified for these machines. Correct bearing fitment is critical to vibrator output consistency and motor longevity, making part number the straightforward choice when servicing your AR 34 unit.
Key Features
- OEM Precision Tolerancing — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's exact dimensional and load-rating specifications for the 6304 bearing position, ensuring proper radial clearance and rotational accuracy.
- Drop-In Replacement — Matches the original bearing seat dimensions on AR 34 series vibrators, seating directly into the bearing housing without modification.
- Broad AR 34 Series Coverage — Compatible with multiple AR 34 configurations including the AR 34/6/042, AR 34/6/250, AR 34/3/400, AR 34/3/230 v, AR 34/3,6/230, AR 34/3,6/460, AR 34/6/115, and AR 34/3/500.
- Sustained Vibration Output — A correctly functioning bearing maintains smooth, consistent eccentric rotation; a worn or failed bearing causes vibration irregularity, heat buildup, and accelerated motor wear.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson Part — Supplied as genuine OEM stock under part number 5100002152, backed by Wacker Neuson's original equipment quality standards.
A grooved ball bearing supports the rotating shaft inside the vibrator motor, carrying radial loads while allowing the shaft to spin freely with minimal friction. In an external concrete vibrator like the AR 34 series, this bearing is subjected to continuous high-speed rotation and vibration forces, making its condition directly tied to the unit's performance and service life. When the bearing wears, operators typically notice increased heat, noise, or a drop in vibration amplitude — all signs that replacement is due before further damage occurs.
