The Wacker Neuson 5100030358 Crankshaft is a genuine OEM crankshaft designed for the DPU4545, DPU5545, and DPU6555 series reversible vibratory plate compactors. As a direct OEM part, the 5100030358 is manufactured to the same specifications as the original component, ensuring a correct installation without fitment guesswork. This crankshaft covers an extensive range of DPU variants across all three model families, including He, Heh, Hech, Heap, Hehap, Hecs, Hesh, Hecsh, Hechzf, and US-spec configurations. Verify your model number against the fitment list before ordering to confirm this is the right part for your machine.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Precision Tolerancing — Manufactured to exact journal diameter and stroke specifications, ensuring proper bearing clearance and crankcase balance for smooth engine operation.
- Direct Drop-In Installation — Matches the original crankshaft's bolt pattern, bearing journal layout, and mounting dimensions for a straightforward engine rebuild.
- Broad DPU Series Fitment — Confirmed for DPU4545, DPU5545, and DPU6555 reversible plate compactors across He, Heh, Hech, Heap, Hehap, Hecs, Hesh, Hecsh, Hechzf, and US-spec variants.
- Restored Engine Output — A sound crankshaft maintains proper compression transfer to the vibration system; a worn or cracked crank causes power loss, excessive vibration, and engine failure.
- Long-Term Durability — OEM-grade material and surface hardening resist the cyclic stress loads inherent to diesel-powered reversible plate compactor engines.
The crankshaft is the central rotating component of the engine, converting the linear force of the pistons into the rotational power that drives the compactor's exciter mechanism. In a reversible DPU plate compactor, consistent crankshaft integrity is essential — any imbalance, journal wear, or cracking disrupts the engine's ability to deliver steady power to the hydraulic reversing system and vibration plate. When a crankshaft fails or becomes worn, operators typically notice increased engine vibration, oil leaks at the main bearings, loss of power, or complete engine seizure; replacing it promptly with a correct OEM part restores full compaction performance and protects surrounding engine components from secondary damage.
