The Wacker Neuson Greasing Nipple is a genuine OEM component designed for the RD24-100, RD27-120, RD28-120, RD40-130, and RD45-140 series tandem rollers. As a direct OEM replacement, this part is sourced from Wacker Neuson and built to the same standards as the original, ensuring a correct fit every time. It covers an extensive range of variants across the RD24, RD27, RD28, RD40, and RD45 families — including C, O, DPF, and E configurations — making it a versatile stock item for fleets running multiple roller models. Keep a spare on hand and service intervals stay on schedule without sourcing delays.
Key Features
- OEM-Grade Grease Passage Integrity — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original specification, ensuring correct thread form and bore sizing so grease flows at the intended pressure without bypass or blockage.
- Drop-In Thread Compatibility — Matches the original thread pitch and seat angle of the factory-installed nipple, threading directly into existing ports without re-tapping or adapters.
- Broad RD-Series Fitment — A single part number covers RD24-100, RD27-120, RD28-120, RD40-130, and RD45-140 variants, including C, O, DPF, and E configurations across multiple serial ranges.
- Consistent Lubrication Delivery — A properly functioning greasing nipple ensures bearing and pivot surfaces receive full grease charges at every service interval, preventing premature wear on high-load compaction components.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson Part — Supplied as authentic OEM stock under part number 5100012482, so you know exactly what you're installing and can document it accurately in service records.
A greasing nipple — also known as a grease fitting or zerk fitting — is the entry point through which lubricant is injected into bearings, pins, and pivot joints during routine maintenance. It contains a small spring-loaded check valve that opens under grease gun pressure to admit lubricant and then seals closed to prevent contamination from entering the lubrication point. When a greasing nipple becomes damaged, blocked, or stripped, grease cannot reach the intended component, leading to accelerated wear on bearings and articulation points that can result in costly drivetrain or drum bearing failures on compaction equipment.
