The Wacker Neuson Steering Unit is a genuine OEM component designed for the RD24-100, RD27-120, RD28-120, and related tandem roller series. As a direct factory part, the is manufactured to the same specification as the original unit installed at the factory, ensuring a drop-in replacement with no guesswork on fit or function. This unit covers an extensive range of configurations across the RD24 and RD28 families, including standard, padfoot, combination, DPF, and electric variants. If you're restoring full steering response to your tandem roller, this is the verified part for the job.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Hydraulic Precision — Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this steering unit meets the exact hydraulic pressure and flow tolerances required for responsive, consistent directional control on tandem rollers.
- Direct-Fit Replacement — Engineered to install into the existing steering circuit with OEM-matched porting and mounting dimensions, eliminating the need for adaptations or custom fittings.
- Broad Tandem Roller Coverage — Fits a wide range of RD24-100 and RD28-120 series rollers, including standard, padfoot (o), combination (c), DPF, and electric (e) configurations across multiple build generations.
- Restored Steering Authority — A worn or failing steering unit causes sluggish, imprecise directional control and uneven compaction passes; replacing it with the correct OEM unit restores full operator control and compaction accuracy.
- Operator Safety — Steering system integrity is critical to safe machine operation on grade and in confined compaction zones; using the correct OEM-specification unit ensures the steering circuit performs as designed under load.
The steering unit is the hydraulic heart of the tandem roller's directional control system. It translates input from the steering wheel into precise hydraulic commands that articulate the machine's frame, allowing the operator to guide the roller accurately along compaction passes. When the steering unit wears out or fails, the machine may respond sluggishly, drift off line, or lose steering authority altogether — making compaction work slower, less accurate, and potentially unsafe on slopes or near trench edges.
