The Wacker Neuson 5100024557 is a genuine OEM Bow Handle designed for a wide range of BPS, APS, DPS, and VP series vibratory plate compactors. As a direct factory replacement, this handle is built to the same specifications as the original part installed at the time of manufacture. Verified fitment spans multiple plate compactor families including the BPS1550A, BPS1550B, BPS2050A, BPS2050B, APS1550e, APS2050e, DPS2050H, and VP1135A US models. Sourcing the correct handle by part number 5100024557 ensures the operator interface fits and functions exactly as intended.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original design standards, ensuring the handle geometry and mounting interface match the original exactly.
- Direct Bolt-On Replacement — Engineered to mount to the existing frame attachment points on compatible plate compactors with no reworking of hardware or mounting positions.
- Broad Compactor Compatibility — Fits BPS1550, BPS2050, APS1550e, APS2050e, DPS2050H, and VP1135A US series vibratory plate compactors, covering both battery-powered and gasoline-powered models.
- Operator Control and Stability — A structurally sound bow handle keeps the operator in proper control of the plate during compaction passes; a bent, cracked, or missing handle compromises machine handling and operator posture.
- Operator Safety Compliance — The handle is the primary point of contact between the operator and the machine; replacing a damaged unit with a genuine OEM part maintains the intended ergonomic and control characteristics designed into the machine.
The bow handle on a vibratory plate compactor serves as the operator's primary interface for guiding and maneuvering the machine across compaction surfaces. It absorbs and transmits the steering input that directs the plate forward across soil, aggregate, or paving surfaces, and on reversible models it also transfers directional control inputs to the machine. When the handle is cracked, bent, or structurally compromised, the operator loses precise control of the machine, which can affect compaction quality and create a safety hazard on the worksite.
