The Wacker Neuson Connecting Rod is a genuine OEM connecting rod designed for the PT2A and PT2A(I) series trash pumps. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this part carries the same specifications as the component originally installed at the factory, ensuring a correct, hassle-free installation. It is verified to fit PT2A and PT2A(I) models, making it the straightforward choice for technicians and operators carrying out engine rebuilds or repairs on these pumps.
Key Features
- OEM-Grade Rod Geometry — Manufactured to exact journal diameter and center-to-center length specifications, ensuring proper load transfer between the piston and crankshaft.
- Direct Drop-In Installation — Matches the original bearing bore and bolt pattern of the PT2A engine, so it seats and torques down without rework or adaptation.
- Confirmed Fitment for PT2A and PT2A(I) — Verified against Wacker Neuson model numbers PT2A and PT2A(I), covering both standard and international pump variants.
- Restores Full Engine Output — A correctly fitted connecting rod maintains proper compression and combustion efficiency, keeping the pump delivering rated flow and pressure.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson Part — Backed by Wacker Neuson's OEM supply chain, this is the same connecting rod used in original production — not an approximation of it.
The connecting rod is the critical link between the piston and the crankshaft inside the engine. It converts the up-and-down motion of the piston into the rotational force that drives the crankshaft, which ultimately powers the pump impeller. When a connecting rod is worn, bent, or cracked, the engine will lose compression, run roughly, or fail entirely — often causing secondary damage to the crankshaft and cylinder bore if the problem is not addressed promptly.
