Wacker Neuson 5000011552 Screw M6 X 18 Socket Head

The Wacker Neuson is a genuine OEM Screw M6 X 18 Socket Head designed for DPU and BPU reversible vibratory plate compactors across an extensive range of models. This fastener is sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, ensuring it meets the exact dimensional and material specifications of the original hardware used on the production line. Compatible with diesel-powered DPU models including the DPU 2540H, DPU 3050H, DPU 4545H, DPU 5545H, DPU 6555H, DPU 80, DPU 90, and DPU 110 series, as well as gasoline-powered BPU models including the BPU 2540A, BPU 3050A, BPU 4045A, BPU 5545A, and BPU 3750Ats series. Using the correct OEM fastener keeps critical assemblies torqued to spec and eliminates the risk of stripped threads or hardware failure during operation.

Key Features

• OEM-Grade Socket Head Construction — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's exact M6 X 18 thread pitch and head geometry, ensuring correct torque engagement without fastener deformation or thread galling.
• Direct Bolt-In Replacement — Socket head drive format matches the original installation tooling used on DPU and BPU plate compactors, allowing straightforward removal and reinstallation with standard hex key tooling.
• Broad DPU and BPU Series Coverage — Fits diesel DPU models from the 2540H through the 110-series large plates, and gasoline BPU models from the 2540A through the 5545A, including TS, HE, HEH, HEC, and AP variant sub-families.
• Maintains Structural Integrity of Fastened Assemblies — A properly spec'd fastener keeps compactor housings, guards, and mechanical assemblies secured under the continuous vibration loads these machines generate; an undersized or incorrect screw can work loose and cause component damage.
• Genuine Wacker Neuson OEM Part — Supplied as original equipment hardware, verifying material grade and dimensional accuracy against the production specification for 5000011552.

A socket head cap screw functions as a precision fastener that clamps two or more components together using a hex socket drive, allowing high torque to be applied in tight or recessed spaces where a standard hex head wrench cannot reach. On reversible vibratory plate compactors like the DPU and BPU series, fasteners throughout the machine are subjected to sustained, high-frequency vibration that places constant stress on threaded joints. When a fastener of the wrong grade, thread pitch, or length is used — or when an original screw has stretched or stripped — the joint can loosen progressively, leading to misalignment, accelerated wear on adjacent components, or outright separation of the fastened assembly during operation. Replacing a worn or damaged screw with the correct OEM part, part number 5000011552, restores the clamping integrity of the joint and ensures the assembly performs as designed.
