The Wacker Neuson Cheese Head Screw is a genuine OEM component designed for the RC50, RC70, and RC110 series single drum soil compactors. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this screw matches the exact material grade, thread specification, and head geometry of the original part installed at the factory. It is compatible across a wide range of RC-series configurations, including CAB, ROPS, DPF, and VO variants, as well as both standard and P-series models. When you need a direct hardware replacement that drops straight into position without guesswork, the is the correct part.
Key Features
- Correct Thread and Head Geometry — Manufactured to the original Wacker Neuson specification, ensuring the cheese head profile seats flush and torques to the correct value without stripping or misalignment.
- Genuine OEM Part — Supplied by Wacker Neuson, this is the same screw used in original assembly — not a generic substitute with uncertain material grading.
- Broad RC-Series Compatibility — Fits RC50, RC50p, RC70, RC70p, RC70vo, RC110, and RC110p variants across CAB, ROPS, DPF, and US-spec configurations.
- Hardware Integrity Under Vibration — Soil compactors operate under continuous high-frequency vibration; a correctly spec'd screw maintains clamping force and prevents joint loosening over sustained machine cycles.
- Direct Hardware Replacement — Replaces part number 5100048632 on a one-for-one basis, fitting existing threaded bosses and mounting points without modification.
A cheese head screw is a fastener with a cylindrical, flat-topped head and a relatively large diameter-to-height ratio, designed to distribute clamping load across a broad contact surface while keeping a low profile in the assembly. In heavy compaction equipment like the RC-series rollers, fasteners of this type are used in locations that experience significant mechanical vibration and repeated stress cycling. When a screw of this type fails — through corrosion, thread damage, or fatigue — the joint it secures can loosen progressively, leading to component movement, accelerated wear on surrounding parts, or outright mechanical failure. Replacing it promptly with the correct OEM specification fastener restores the intended clamping force and keeps the assembly performing as designed.
