The Wacker Neuson Tyre Valve is a genuine OEM component designed for the RD18-100c and RD18-100c.3 series reversible vibratory plate compactors. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this tyre valve meets the exact specifications of the original part fitted at the factory. It is a direct-fit replacement for the compaction drum tyre, ensuring correct inflation port function with no improvisation required. Confirmed compatible with both RD18-100c and RD18-100c.3 machine configurations, this part is the right choice when you need a dependable, like-for-like repair.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Seal Integrity — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original valve specification, ensuring an airtight seat and consistent inflation retention in the compaction drum tyre.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Matches the original valve stem fitment point exactly, threading in just like the factory-installed unit with no drilling or adaptation.
- Verified RD18-100c Series Fitment — Confirmed compatible with both the RD18-100c and RD18-100c.3 reversible vibratory plate compactors.
- Sustained Compaction Performance — A properly functioning tyre valve maintains the correct drum tyre pressure, which directly affects compaction output and surface uniformity. A failed valve leads to pressure loss, uneven drum contact, and inconsistent results.
- Operational Safety — Maintaining correct tyre inflation through a reliable valve prevents unpredictable drum behavior during operation, keeping the machine tracking and performing as intended on site.
The tyre valve is the small but critical fitting that allows the compaction drum tyre to be inflated and sealed to the correct working pressure. It acts as a one-way inflation port — holding air in during operation and providing access for pressure checks and adjustments during servicing. When a tyre valve fails or corrodes, the drum tyre loses pressure gradually or rapidly, reducing the effective contact area between the drum and the surface being compacted. This leads to poor compaction density, uneven results, and potential machine handling issues that can affect both output quality and operator control.
