The Wacker Neuson is a genuine OEM Shim Ring designed for the DPU 7060 series reversible vibratory plate compactors, including the DPU 7060SC, DPU 7060Fe, and DPU 7060Fet. As a direct OEM replacement sourced through the Wacker Neuson parts program, the is manufactured to the exact tolerances required for proper assembly and function within these heavy-duty diesel reversible plates. This shim ring ensures correct mechanical spacing and load distribution at its installation point, maintaining the tight clearances that these high-output compactors demand. If you're servicing a DPU 7060SC, DPU 7060Fe, or DPU 7060Fet, verifying the correct shim ring is critical to restoring the machine to proper operating specification.
Key Features
- Exact OEM Tolerancing — Manufactured to precise dimensional specifications, ensuring the correct axial clearance and load transfer at the mating surfaces where this shim ring seats.
- Direct OEM Replacement — Drops into the same position as the original, with no fitting adjustments needed during reassembly of the DPU 7060 series drivetrain or exciter assembly.
- DPU 7060 Series Fitment — Confirmed compatibility across the DPU 7060SC (Remote Control), DPU 7060Fe, and DPU 7060Fet reversible vibratory plate compactors.
- Maintains Correct Mechanical Clearance — A worn or incorrectly sized shim ring leads to improper component spacing, accelerated bearing wear, and loss of compaction output — using the correct OEM part prevents these issues.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson OEM Part — Carries full Wacker Neuson OEM part status, meaning it meets the same material and dimensional standards as the component installed at the factory.
A shim ring is a precision-thickness spacer used to set and maintain the correct clearance or preload between rotating or mating components within a mechanical assembly. In a reversible vibratory plate compactor like the DPU 7060 series, shim rings are commonly found in the exciter unit or drive assembly, where exact spacing between bearings, gears, or housings is essential to smooth, balanced operation. When a shim ring wears down, deforms, or is replaced with an incorrectly sized part, it throws off those clearances — leading to vibration imbalance, premature bearing failure, or damage to adjacent components.
