The Wacker Neuson O-Ring 15X3.2 is a genuine OEM seal designed for the DPU 2440H reversible vibratory plate compactor. As a factory-sourced component, the is manufactured to the exact material grade and dimensional tolerances specified for this machine, ensuring a correct compression fit at its intended sealing point. This O-Ring is the right choice when servicing the DPU 2440H and restoring it to proper operating condition.
Key Features
- Correct Compression Profile: — Molded to the precise 15 x 3.2 mm cross-section required for a proper seal, maintaining consistent compression and contact under operating pressures.
- Genuine OEM Material Grade: — Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this O-Ring meets the elastomer compound specification for the DPU 2440H, resisting fluid degradation and temperature cycling in a diesel compactor environment.
- Drop-In Replacement: — Designed to seat directly in the original groove without alteration, allowing for a straightforward swap during routine service or repair.
- Verified Fitment for DPU 2440H: — Confirmed for the DPU 2440H reversible vibratory plate compactor, a 24 kN diesel-powered unit used for heavy-duty soil and aggregate compaction.
- Leak Prevention: — A failed or worn O-Ring allows fluid to bypass the seal, leading to contamination, pressure loss, or external leakage. Replacing with the correct OEM part restores the integrity of the sealed joint.
An O-Ring is a circular elastomeric seal installed in a groove between two mating surfaces or along a shaft or fitting. Its role is to block the passage of fluids or air by deforming under compression to fill any gap at the joint. In compaction equipment like the DPU 2440H, O-Rings are used throughout hydraulic, fuel, and lubrication circuits where a reliable, leak-free connection is critical to continuous operation. When an O-Ring hardens, cracks, or is physically damaged, it loses its ability to seal — resulting in fluid leaks, pressure loss, or contamination that can affect machine performance and require immediate attention.
