The Wacker Neuson Center Pole Head Complete is a genuine OEM component designed for the DPU110Lec and DPU110Lem series reversible vibratory plate compactors. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this part carries the same specifications as the original, ensuring it installs and functions exactly as intended. Compatible fitment spans multiple build variants including the DPU110Lec870, DPU110Lec970, DPU110Lem870, DPU110Lem970, and their corresponding US-spec configurations, as well as the DPU 80/110 KMAT platform. When you order part number, you get the complete center pole head assembly — no sourcing individual components separately.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Integrity — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's exact assembly tolerances, ensuring the pole head engages and articulates correctly within the compactor's exciter and handle system.
- Complete Assembly — Supplied as a full Center Pole Head Complete unit, so the entire assembly is replaced in a single service step rather than piecing together sub-components.
- Broad DPU110 Series Coverage — Fits DPU110Lec870, DPU110Lec970, DPU110Lem870, DPU110Lem970 (including US-spec variants) and the DPU 80/110 KMAT platform — confirm your model before ordering.
- Structural Stability Under Load — A properly functioning center pole head maintains the structural connection between the operator handle and the compactor deck; wear or damage here leads to excessive vibration transfer, loose handling, and loss of directional control.
- Direct OEM Replacement — Part number 5100018078 cross-references directly to the original Wacker Neuson bill of materials, so fitment verification is straightforward using your machine's serial number.
The center pole head is the structural and mechanical hub that connects the operator handle assembly to the compactor's main body on DPU-series reversible plates. It absorbs and manages the significant vibration forces generated during compaction operation, acting as the interface point that keeps the handle system stable and controllable. When the center pole head wears, cracks, or fails, operators typically experience increased vibration at the handles, looseness in the steering response, or complete loss of handle-to-deck connection — any of which can compromise both operator comfort and safe machine control.
