The Wacker Neuson Hexagonal Head Cap Screw M 8x 22 is a genuine OEM fastener designed for the APU3050e, APU2840e, APU2850e, APU2860e, APU3340e, APU3350e, and APU3360e series vibration plates. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this screw is manufactured to the exact material and dimensional specifications used in original production. With verified fitment across multiple APU-series machines — including LOXAM-configured units — you can order with confidence knowing this is the correct part for your application.
Key Features
- OEM-Grade Fastener Strength — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original torque and tensile specifications, ensuring the screw holds under the sustained vibration loads these machines generate.
- Drop-In Thread Compatibility — M 8x 22 dimensions match the original tapped bore exactly, allowing straightforward installation with standard tooling and no rework to surrounding components.
- Broad APU-Series Fitment — Confirmed for the APU3050e, APU2840e, APU2850e, APU2860e, APU3340e, APU3350e, and APU3360e, including LOXAM-spec APU3050e vibration plates.
- Vibration-Resistant Retention — A correctly spec'd cap screw maintains consistent clamping force through continuous plate compactor operation; an undersized or mismatched screw can work loose and compromise structural integrity.
A hexagonal head cap screw is a fully threaded or partially threaded fastener used to clamp and secure structural components, covers, or mechanical assemblies together. On vibration plate compactors, fasteners like this are subject to constant cyclic loading from the exciter mechanism, making correct thread engagement and material grade critical to long-term joint integrity. When a cap screw fatigues, stretches, or is replaced with an incorrect size, clamping force is lost — which can lead to loosening, component movement, and accelerated wear on the surrounding assembly.
