Description
Overview:
This Sponge Pre Filter Element is a genuine Wacker Neuson part designed for rammer compactors, helping protect engines from dust and grit before it reaches the main air filter. Made from durable sponge foam, it provides a first stage of air filtration to reduce clogging and wear, helping maintain stable performance and reduce downtime. It is a direct replacement for OEM No. 5000160459 and is suitable for popular models such as the Wacker BS50-2 and BS60-2. The element is lightweight, easy to fit, and well suited to harsh site conditions where fine dust is common. Using the correct pre-filter supports cleaner air intake, better starting, and consistent running in demanding ground compaction tasks.
