The Wacker Neuson is a genuine OEM Cylinder Head Gasket designed for the RT560, RT820, and RT820HT vibratory trench rollers, as well as the DPU 9070 and DPU 100-70 reversible vibratory plate compactors. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this part meets the exact material and dimensional specifications of the original component. It provides a reliable combustion chamber seal across the full range of compatible RT and DPU models. If your engine is showing signs of coolant or oil loss, compression drop, or overheating, the is the correct OEM replacement to restore proper operation.
Key Features
- OEM-Grade Sealing Material — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original material specification, ensuring the correct compression rating and thermal tolerance for the engine's combustion and cooling demands.
- Drop-In Head Replacement — Matches the original bolt pattern and bore geometry of the cylinder head, allowing straightforward installation without rework or trimming.
- Broad RT and DPU Fitment — Confirmed for RT560 and RT820 vibratory trench rollers (including RT820HT variants) and DPU 9070 and DPU 100-70 reversible vibratory plate compactors.
- Maintains Combustion Efficiency — A correctly sealed cylinder head keeps compression where it belongs, supporting full engine power output and consistent fuel combustion on every cycle.
- Fuel and Coolant Containment — A failed or degraded head gasket allows coolant and oil to migrate into the combustion chamber or mix together — replacing this part promptly prevents accelerated engine damage.
The cylinder head gasket forms the critical seal between the engine's cylinder head and the engine block. It must contain combustion pressure, engine coolant, and oil simultaneously — all within a component that experiences extreme heat cycling every time the engine runs. When the gasket fails or degrades, combustion gases can escape, coolant can enter the cylinder, and oil passages can cross-contaminate, leading to rapid engine deterioration. Replacing the gasket at the first sign of failure — white exhaust smoke, milky oil, or unexplained coolant loss — is essential to protecting the engine in your RT or DPU machine.
