The Wacker Neuson Magnet is a genuine OEM component designed for the RD18-80, RD18-100, and RD18-100c series double drum rollers, including the updated.3 variants. As a factory-sourced part, it is manufactured to the same specifications as the original, ensuring proper fit and correct function within the machine's sensor or detection system. This magnet is confirmed compatible across all six RD18 model configurations covered under Wacker Neuson part, making it a dependable direct replacement when the original component is worn, damaged, or missing.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Magnetic Strength — Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this magnet delivers the precise field strength required for accurate signal triggering in the roller's sensor circuit — no guesswork on output consistency.
- Drop-In Replacement — Engineered to match the original mounting configuration, this part installs into the same position as the factory component without modification to brackets or housings.
- Broad RD18 Series Coverage — Fits all six RD18 model variants: RD18-80, RD18-100, RD18-100c, RD18-80.3, RD18-100.3, and RD18-100c.3, covering both original and updated production runs.
- Sensor Circuit Integrity — A correctly functioning magnet ensures the roller's detection or feedback system reads accurately; a degraded or missing magnet can cause erratic sensor behavior or system faults that interrupt operation.
- Verified Part Number — Part number 5100068732 is the authoritative Wacker Neuson reference for this magnet across all listed RD18 configurations — use it to confirm fitment before ordering.
The magnet in a compaction roller typically works in conjunction with a proximity sensor or speed/position detection system to relay rotational or positional data back to the machine's control circuit. When the magnet passes the sensor during drum rotation, it generates a signal pulse that the system uses to monitor drum speed, vibration frequency, or operational status. If the magnet is lost, cracked, or has weakened over time, the sensor may fail to register correctly, leading to fault codes, loss of vibration control feedback, or inaccurate machine readings that affect compaction performance.
