The Wacker Neuson Cylinder Head Gasket is a genuine OEM component designed for the DPU 100-70 and DPU 100-70Le series reversible vibratory plate compactors. As a direct factory-sourced part, it meets the exact sealing specifications required by the engine in these heavy-duty diesel compaction machines. Fitment covers the DPU 100-70, DPU 100-70Le, and DPU 100-70Les models, making it the correct choice when rebuilding or resealing the cylinder head on any of these machines. Installing the right head gasket the first time ensures a proper combustion seal and helps restore the engine to full operating condition.
Key Features
- Engineered Sealing Performance — Manufactured to the precise compression and material tolerances required for the DPU 100-70 diesel engine, ensuring a complete and durable combustion seal.
- Genuine OEM Part — Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, part number 5000208942 carries the same specifications as the original component installed at the factory.
- Confirmed Fitment for DPU 100-70 Series — Verified fit for the DPU 100-70, DPU 100-70Le, and DPU 100-70Les reversible vibratory plate compactors.
- Drop-In Engine Replacement — Designed to seat correctly between the cylinder head and engine block on these models, requiring no machining or adaptation during installation.
- Restores Engine Integrity — A failed or blown head gasket causes compression loss, overheating, and oil or coolant contamination; replacing it with the correct OEM gasket returns the engine to full working condition.
- Fuel and Combustion Safety — A properly sealed cylinder head is critical to containing combustion gases and preventing exhaust leaks, protecting both the engine and the operator in the field.
The cylinder head gasket sits between the engine's cylinder head and the engine block, forming a pressure-tight seal that keeps combustion gases inside the cylinder where they belong. It also prevents engine oil and coolant from mixing or leaking into the combustion chamber. When this gasket fails — whether through age, overheating, or improper torquing — the engine can lose compression, run rough, overheat, or suffer serious internal damage if left unchecked. On diesel-powered compaction equipment like the DPU 100-70 series, where sustained high-load operation is the norm, fitting the correct gasket with the right material rating is essential to a lasting repair.
