The Wacker Neuson is a genuine OEM Grooved Ball Bearing designed for the DPU series reversible vibratory plate compactors, covering an extensive range of DPU 4045H, DPU 4545H, DPU 5045H, DPU 5545H, DPU 6055, DPU 6555H, and DPU 7060F models. As a direct genuine OEM component, part is manufactured to the exact tolerances required for proper eccentric shaft support and smooth vibratory operation in these heavy-duty diesel-powered reversible plates. This bearing is confirmed to fit across numerous configurations and suffix variants within the DPU compactor family, making it the correct choice for both routine maintenance and unplanned bearing replacements. Verify your machine's model number against the fitment list to confirm compatibility before ordering.
Key Features
- OEM Precision Tolerancing — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's exact dimensional and load-rating specifications for the eccentric shaft assembly in DPU reversible vibratory plates, ensuring proper radial and axial load handling under continuous compaction stress.
- Drop-In Installation — Matches the original bearing seat geometry for straightforward replacement; no modification to the housing or shaft is needed during reinstallation.
- Broad DPU Series Coverage — Fits a wide range of DPU 4045H, DPU 4545H, DPU 5045H, DPU 5545H, DPU 6055, DPU 6555H, and DPU 7060F reversible plate compactors across standard, ap, ec, eh, and other suffix variants.
- Sustained Vibration Output — A correctly functioning grooved ball bearing keeps the exciter shaft spinning true, maintaining consistent centrifugal force and compaction amplitude. A worn bearing causes vibration loss, uneven compaction output, and accelerated damage to surrounding drivetrain components.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson OEM Part — Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, part number 5000020462 meets all original equipment standards, supporting correct machine operation and protecting the integrity of your service records.
The grooved ball bearing in a reversible vibratory plate compactor supports the exciter shaft that generates the machine's compaction force. As the shaft rotates at high speed, the bearing absorbs both radial loads from the rotating eccentric weights and any axial forces transmitted through the drivetrain, allowing the exciter assembly to spin smoothly and consistently. When this bearing wears or fails, the result is increased vibration at the handles, a noticeable drop in compaction performance, unusual noise from the exciter housing, and — if left unaddressed — damage to the shaft, housing bore, and adjacent seals.
