The Wacker Neuson 5100005537 is a genuine OEM Center Pole Head designed for the DPU4045, DPU4545, DPU5545, and DPU6555 series reversible vibratory plate compactors. As a direct factory replacement, this part is manufactured to the same specifications as the original component installed at the factory. Fitment spans a wide range of DPU and BPU configurations including He, Heh, Hech, Hec, Hes, Heap, and Y-series variants, as well as BPU4045A and BPU5545A models. Verifying your machine's model number before ordering ensures a correct, hassle-free installation.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original material and dimensional tolerances, ensuring the pole head seats and pivots exactly as the factory-installed part does.
- Drop-In Replacement — Engineered to connect directly to the existing pole assembly on compatible DPU and BPU compactors with no reworking of mounting points.
- Broad Series Compatibility — Fits a wide range of DPU4045, DPU4545, DPU5545, and DPU6555 configurations including He, Heh, Hech, Hec, Hes, Heap, Y-series, and select BPU models in both US and EU variants.
- Structural Integrity Under Vibration — The center pole head bears continuous dynamic load from the compactor's vibration system; a worn or cracked head can compromise operator control and guiding precision during compaction passes.
- Operator Control and Handling — A correctly functioning pole head transmits steering input cleanly between the operator and the plate, which is critical for accurate reversible compaction in trenches and confined areas.
The center pole head is the structural interface between the operator handle assembly and the compactor plate, forming the pivot and connection point at the top of the guide pole. It absorbs and transfers the forces generated by the machine's exciter during operation while allowing the operator to steer and control the reversible plate. When the center pole head becomes cracked, worn, or damaged, operator control degrades and vibration can transfer unevenly through the handle system, making precise compaction difficult and potentially unsafe. Replacing a damaged pole head promptly restores full directional control and protects the surrounding pole and handle components from accelerated wear.
