The Wacker Neuson Rubber Metal Buffer is a genuine OEM component designed for RC50, RC50p, RC70, RC70p, and RC70vo single drum soil compactors. As a direct OEM part, it is manufactured to the exact material composition and dimensional tolerances specified for these machines, ensuring a drop-in replacement with no guesswork on fit. This buffer is compatible across a wide range of RC-series configurations, including CAB, ROPS, DPF, and US-market variants, making it a versatile stocking part for fleets running multiple RC-series compactors. Sourcing genuine Wacker Neuson means you receive the same part installed at the factory — no substitution, no compromise.
Key Features
- Bonded Rubber-to-Metal Construction — Genuine OEM bonding process ensures the rubber element does not delaminate from the metal insert under repeated compaction loads and vibration cycles.
- Direct OEM Replacement — Part 5100023137 installs in the same mounting position and orientation as the original, requiring no modification to brackets or hardware.
- Broad RC-Series Compatibility — Fits RC50, RC50p, RC70, RC70p, and RC70vo variants across standard, US-market, DPF CAB, and DPF ROPS configurations.
- Vibration Isolation Integrity — A correctly functioning rubber metal buffer absorbs and isolates operational vibration between the drum assembly and the mainframe, protecting structural components from fatigue stress.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson OEM Part — Supplied as an authorized OEM component, this part carries the material and dimensional specifications set by Wacker Neuson for the RC-series production line.
A rubber metal buffer is a bonded isolator that sits between two structural sections of the compactor — typically between the drum assembly and the machine frame — to absorb shock and dampen vibration generated during compaction operations. By cushioning the transfer of impact energy, it protects surrounding components from accelerated wear and prevents metal-to-metal contact that would otherwise cause structural fatigue. When a rubber metal buffer deteriorates, cracks, or separates from its metal insert, vibration levels increase noticeably throughout the machine, handling becomes rougher, and adjacent components begin to wear prematurely — making timely replacement essential to maintaining compactor performance and operator comfort.
