The Wacker Neuson Roller Tappet is a genuine OEM component designed for a broad range of DPU reversible vibratory plate compactors, DPS single-direction vibratory plates, and the DFS 90 powered floor saw. As a direct factory replacement, the matches the original engineering tolerances and surface hardness specifications required for correct valve train operation. This part fits models including the DPU 2430F, DPU 2440F, DPU 2450F, DPU 7060, DPU 7060SC, DPU 7060RC, DPS 2040, DPS 2050, and DFS 90 — always confirm your machine number before ordering. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, the Roller Tappet delivers the same service life and performance as the part installed at the factory.
Key Features
- Precision-Hardened Contact Surface — Manufactured to OEM surface hardness specifications, ensuring consistent cam-to-tappet contact and resistance to wear under continuous high-cycle operation.
- Drop-In Valve Train Replacement — Dimensioned to match the original tappet bore and roller diameter exactly, seating correctly without machining or adjustment.
- Broad Wacker Neuson Fitment — Covers DPU 2430F, DPU 2440F, DPU 2450F, DPU 7060 series (including SC and RC remote-control variants), DPS 2040, DPS 2050, and DFS 90 — a single part number across multiple machine families.
- Sustained Engine Valve Timing — A correctly functioning roller tappet maintains accurate valve lift and timing; a worn or flat-spotted tappet causes erratic idling, power loss, and accelerated camshaft wear.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson OEM Part — Supplied by Wacker Neuson, so material grade, roller bearing quality, and dimensional tolerances match the production specification for these compactor and saw engines.
A roller tappet — sometimes called a cam follower — rides directly on the camshaft lobe and transfers the cam's lift profile to the engine's valve stem or pushrod. The roller reduces sliding friction compared to a flat-faced tappet, lowering wear on both the tappet body and the camshaft lobe during high-speed operation. When a roller tappet becomes worn, pitted, or seized, valve timing degrades, causing hard starting, rough running, reduced compaction force or cutting power, and eventual camshaft damage if left unaddressed.
