The Wacker Neuson Compressor is a genuine OEM component designed for the RC50, RC70, and RC110 series single drum soil compactors, including standard, pad foot, vibration, and cab-configured variants across both domestic and US-market builds. As a factory-sourced part, the is manufactured to the same tolerances and output specifications as the original unit, ensuring consistent performance across the full range of compatible machines. This compressor fits an extensive lineup of RC-series compactors, covering RC50, RC50p, RC70, RC70p, RC70vo, RC110, and RC110p configurations — making it a reliable stock item for fleet operators and service technicians managing multiple machines.
Key Features
- OEM-Rated Pressure Output — Genuine Wacker Neuson sourcing ensures this compressor meets the precise pressure and flow specifications required for proper hydraulic or pneumatic circuit operation in RC-series compactors.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Engineered to match the original mounting configuration and port connections of the 5100040579, allowing straightforward installation without adaptation.
- Broad RC-Series Compatibility — Confirmed fitment across RC50, RC50p, RC70, RC70p, RC70vo, RC110, and RC110p models, including ROPS and CAB variants and US-market configurations.
- Sustained Compaction Performance — A fully functioning compressor maintains consistent system pressure, supporting the vibration and drive systems that deliver effective soil compaction. A failing compressor leads to loss of compaction force and reduced machine output.
- Genuine OEM Traceability — Sourced directly through Wacker Neuson's parts supply chain, this component carries the part number 5100040579 for straightforward verification against your machine's parts manual.
The compressor on a single drum soil compactor is responsible for generating and maintaining the pressurized air or hydraulic pressure that supports key machine systems, depending on configuration. It plays a central role in keeping operating circuits functioning within their designed parameters — when the compressor degrades or fails, pressure loss can affect machine responsiveness and overall compaction effectiveness. Replacing a worn compressor with a genuine OEM unit like the Wacker Neuson 5100040579 restores the system to its original operating condition and helps prevent cascading wear on connected components.
