The Wacker Neuson 5100037768 is a genuine OEM Axle designed for the VP1340A, VP1550A, and VP2050A series single-direction vibratory plate compactors. As a direct factory replacement, this axle meets the same specifications as the original component installed at the time of manufacture. It covers a wide range of VP-series variants — including Aw and US-market configurations — making it a versatile stock item for fleet operators and service shops running multiple VP-series machines. Always verify your machine's model and serial number against the fitment list before ordering.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Dimensional Accuracy — Machined to the same tolerances as the original axle, ensuring correct bearing seat fit and wheel hub alignment on VP-series plate compactors.
- Drop-In Replacement — Engineered to install in the same mounting position as the outgoing part, with no reworking of surrounding components required.
- Broad VP-Series Fitment — Confirmed compatibility across VP1340A, VP1340Aw, VP1550A, VP1550Aw, VP2050A, and VP2050Aw variants, including US-market and CN-market configurations.
- Structural Integrity Under Compaction Load — A worn or damaged axle allows wheel play and misalignment, degrading compaction consistency and accelerating wear on adjacent components; a sound replacement restores stable ground contact.
- Wacker Neuson Factory-Sourced — Part number 5100037768 is the genuine Wacker Neuson part, backed by the brand's OEM supply chain for traceability and part number confidence.
The axle is the structural shaft that supports the wheel hub and transmits the machine's weight and vibratory force to the running gear on the VP-series plate compactor. It holds the wheel in correct alignment with the frame, allowing the compactor to travel and maneuver across the work surface under full vibratory load. When the axle is worn, bent, or damaged, the wheel develops play or binds, causing uneven machine handling, accelerated bearing wear, and reduced compaction control — making timely replacement essential to keeping the machine operating as intended.
