The Wacker Neuson 5000217537 is a genuine OEM Fuel Cap designed for VP1030A, VP1030AW, WP1030A, and WP1030AW single-direction vibratory plate compactors. As a direct factory replacement, this cap is sourced to the same specifications as the original, ensuring a proper seal and correct fitment every time. It covers the full VP1030A and WP1030A model range, including both standard and wide-plate AW variants. Keep your compactor fueled and field-ready with the right part from the start.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Seal Integrity — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original specification, this fuel cap delivers the correct thread engagement and sealing pressure to prevent fuel leaks and vapor loss.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Threads directly onto the fuel tank filler neck of compatible VP and WP series plates with no modifications to the cap or tank required.
- Broad VP/WP Series Coverage — Fits VP1030A, VP1030AW, WP1030A, and WP1030AW single-direction vibratory plate compactors across multiple production series.
- Fuel System Protection — A properly sealing cap keeps debris, moisture, and contaminants out of the fuel tank, protecting the engine's fuel system from premature wear and blockages.
- Fuel Containment Safety — A correctly fitted fuel cap prevents fuel spillage during operation and transport, reducing fire risk and keeping the worksite compliant with fuel handling best practices.
The fuel cap seals the opening of the machine's fuel tank, preventing fuel from spilling during operation, transport, or storage. It also acts as a barrier against dirt, water, and debris that could contaminate the fuel supply and cause engine problems downstream. When a fuel cap is cracked, missing its seal, or no longer threads securely, it can allow contaminants into the tank and create a fuel spillage hazard — making prompt replacement essential for safe, uninterrupted compaction work.
