The Wacker Neuson 5100003970 is a genuine OEM Crank Holder Complete designed for DPU6555 and DPU6055 series reversible vibratory plate compactors. As a direct factory replacement, this part is sourced and manufactured to the same specifications as the original component installed at the factory. Fitment covers a wide range of DPU6555 variants — including Hech, Heh, Hes, Hec, Heap, Hs, and He configurations — as well as DPU6055 models. When replacing a worn or damaged crank holder, confirming your model number against the fitment list ensures a straight-forward, correct installation.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction: — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original tolerances, ensuring the crank holder seats and retains the crankshaft with the same holding force and dimensional accuracy as the part it replaces.
- Direct-Fit Replacement: — Engineered to install into the existing mounting position on DPU6555 and DPU6055 compactors without alteration, aligning precisely with the existing crankshaft and housing interfaces.
- Wide DPU6555 Variant Coverage: — Compatible with Hech, Heh, Hes, Hec, Heap, Hs, He, and US-market configurations, as well as DPU6055 models, making this a versatile stock part for fleets running multiple DPU variants.
- Maintains Compaction Output: — A correctly functioning crank holder keeps the crankshaft anchored and the exciter mechanism operating at full eccentric force, preserving the compaction performance the machine is rated to deliver.
- Protects Surrounding Components: — A failed or loose crank holder allows unwanted crankshaft movement that can damage the exciter housing, bearings, and drive components — replacing it promptly prevents secondary damage and more costly repairs.
The crank holder complete is a structural retention assembly that secures the crankshaft within the exciter unit of a reversible vibratory plate compactor. It holds the crank in correct alignment so that the eccentric weights generate consistent, directed vibration force through the baseplate and into the ground. When the crank holder wears, cracks, or loosens, the crankshaft can shift under load, causing irregular vibration, accelerated bearing wear, and a measurable drop in compaction effectiveness. Replacing the crank holder complete restores proper crankshaft retention and returns the exciter system to full operating condition.
