The Wacker Neuson Breather Tube is a genuine OEM component designed for the BS50-4As, BS60-4As, and BS70-4As vibratory rammer series. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this part matches the original specification exactly, ensuring a correct, hassle-free installation. Confirmed fitment extends across multiple configurations of the BS-4As rammer family, including standard, high-altitude, and plastic shoe variants. When you need the right part the first time, the OEM is the straightforward choice.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Venting Integrity — Manufactured by Wacker Neuson to the original design spec, ensuring the breather tube maintains correct crankcase pressure balance with no risk of dimensional mismatch.
- Direct Drop-In Installation — Matches the original routing path and connection points, so the tube seats and seals correctly without cutting, adapting, or forcing fitment.
- Broad BS-4As Series Coverage — Compatible with BS50-4As, BS60-4As, and BS70-4As rammers across standard, high-altitude, and plastic shoe configurations, including models with hour meters.
- Protects Engine Longevity — A properly functioning breather tube prevents pressure buildup and oil contamination in the crankcase, keeping the engine running cleanly through demanding compaction cycles.
- Fuel System Safety Relevance — A degraded or blocked breather tube can cause oil to be forced past seals and into the fuel or air system; replacing it with an OEM part maintains safe, intended engine operation.
The breather tube is a small but critical component in a rammer's engine ventilation system. Its job is to relieve excess crankcase pressure by allowing gases to vent safely, while preventing outside contaminants from entering the engine. When the breather tube becomes cracked, blocked, or disconnected, pressure builds up inside the crankcase, which can force oil past gaskets and seals, leading to leaks, increased wear, and eventual engine damage. Keeping this tube in good condition is a straightforward part of routine engine maintenance that protects the rammer's performance over its working life.
