The Wacker Neuson 5000011582 is a genuine OEM Cheese Head Screw designed for the WP1540 and WP1550 series single-direction vibratory plate compactors, as well as the DPS 1850H asphalt vibratory plate. As a factory-original component, this screw is produced to the exact material and dimensional specifications used in original equipment assembly, ensuring a proper fit and consistent mechanical performance across the wide range of WP1540 and WP1550 variants it supports. Whether you are servicing a standard WP1550, an asphalt-configured WP1550A, or a wheel-kit-equipped WP1540AW or WP1550AW, part number 5000011582 is the correct OEM replacement. Stock this hardware-level part to keep your compaction equipment maintained and field-ready.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Material Grade — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original torque and tensile specifications, so thread engagement and clamping load match what left the factory.
- Exact Head Geometry for Tool Access — The cheese head profile provides the correct driver clearance for the fastener positions found on WP1540 and WP1550 plate assemblies, installing without rework or substitution.
- Wide WP-Series and DPS Coverage — Confirmed fitment across WP1540, WP1540A, WP1540AW, WP1540W, WP1550, WP1550A, WP1550AW, WP1550V, WP1550VW, WP1550RW, WP1550R, WP1550W, and the DPS 1850H asphalt plate.
- Structural Integrity Under Vibration — Vibratory plate compactors subject every fastener to continuous high-frequency loading; a correctly spec'd OEM screw maintains its clamp load and resists loosening where an undersized substitute may back out or fail.
- Cost-Effective Hardware Replacement — Replacing a worn, stripped, or missing fastener with the correct OEM part prevents secondary damage to threaded bosses and surrounding components that a poorly fitting screw can cause over time.
A cheese head screw is a cylindrical-head fastener used throughout the structural and mechanical assemblies of vibratory plate compactors to secure panels, guards, engine mounts, and exciter-related components. Its wide, flat-topped head distributes clamping force evenly and provides a positive bearing surface in the close-tolerance mounting positions typical of compact compaction equipment. When a fastener of this type is stripped, corroded, or missing, the joint it holds can shift under vibration, accelerating wear on adjacent components and potentially causing misalignment or damage to the assembly it was meant to secure.
