The Wacker Neuson Bush is a genuine OEM component designed for WP1540A, VP1135A, and VP1030A series single-direction vibratory plate compactors. As a direct factory replacement, this bush matches the original part specification and installs without modification to the host assembly. Confirmed fitment spans both US and standard variants across the WP1540A, VP1135A, and VP1030A families, covering a wide range of walk-behind plate compactor configurations. Keep a spare on hand to avoid extended interruptions to soil, aggregate, or paving stone compaction operations.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Material Grade — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original material and dimensional specification, ensuring the bush maintains correct bore tolerancing and surface hardness within the host assembly.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Engineered to the same profile as the factory-installed bush, seating and securing in the original location without rework or adaptation.
- Broad Vibratory Plate Fitment — Compatible with WP1540A, WP1540Aw, VP1135A, VP1135Aw, VP1030A, and VP1030Aw plate compactors, including US-market variants.
- Supports Smooth Eccentric Operation — A correctly fitted bush reduces play between rotating or pivoting components, preserving vibration output consistency and protecting surrounding parts from accelerated wear.
- Verified Part Number — Sold under Wacker Neuson part number 5100018340, cross-referenced across multiple machine numbers in the WP and VP families for confirmed accuracy.
A bush is a cylindrical sleeve that acts as a bearing surface between two moving or load-bearing components — typically a shaft and its housing. In a vibratory plate compactor, bushes are used at key pivot and rotation points to absorb friction, maintain alignment, and protect metal surfaces from direct contact wear. When a bush wears through or collapses, excess play develops between components, which can lead to uneven vibration, noise, accelerated wear on adjacent parts, and eventual mechanical failure if left unaddressed. Replacing a worn bush promptly restores proper clearance and protects the surrounding assembly.
