The Wacker Neuson Cheese Head Screw M8x55 is a genuine OEM fastener designed for the BS68 series rammers, including the BS68-2b/28, BS68-4Ab/28, BS68-4A/28, BS68-2/28, and BS68-4A/28 CN models. As a factory-sourced component, it matches the exact material grade, thread pitch, and dimensional tolerances specified by Wacker Neuson for this application. Confirm your model number before ordering — this screw is validated across multiple BS68 configurations, so cross-referencing your machine's parts list ensures a direct-fit installation. Keeping the correct hardware in place maintains the structural integrity of the assemblies it secures, helping your rammer perform as intended through demanding compaction work.
Key Features
- OEM-Grade Fastener Material — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's specified hardness and thread tolerance for the M8x55 application, so the screw holds clamp load correctly without stripping or backing out under vibration.
- Drops Straight Into Place — Matching thread pitch and shank length mean this screw installs into existing threaded bores without chasing threads or shimming — seat it, torque it, done.
- Broad BS68 Series Coverage — Fits BS68-2b/28, BS68-4Ab/28, BS68-4A/28, BS68-2/28, BS68-4A/28 CN, and Sunbelt-variant models, covering a wide range of Wacker Neuson BS68 rammer configurations.
- Vibration-Resistant Retention — Rammers produce continuous high-frequency impact; using the correct OEM-specified screw maintains proper clamping force across the fastened joint under those operating conditions.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson Part — Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, part number 5100066700 carries the same specifications as the hardware installed at the factory — no substitutions, no guesswork.
A cheese head screw is a cylindrical-headed fastener with a flat top and straight sides, providing a large bearing surface and a secure grip on mating components. In a vibratory rammer like the BS68 series, fasteners are subjected to constant cyclic shock loads, and using an incorrectly sized or lower-grade substitute can lead to loosening, joint movement, or component damage over time. Replacing a worn or damaged screw with the correct OEM part restores the clamping integrity of the assembly and keeps critical components properly located during operation.
