The Wacker Neuson Seal is a genuine OEM seal designed for the DPS3050, DPS3060, DPU 2870, DPU 2950, DPU 2960, and DPU 2970 series vibratory plate compactors. As a direct Wacker Neuson OEM component, part is manufactured to the exact material and dimensional standards required for proper fit and function in these machines. It is compatible across both single-direction (DPS) and reversible (DPU) vibratory plate families, making it a widely applicable service part for compaction equipment fleets. Keeping a fresh seal in place is one of the most cost-effective ways to protect internal components and maintain consistent compaction performance on soil, aggregate, and paving stone applications.
Key Features
- OEM Material Grade: — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's exact elastomer and dimensional specifications, ensuring the seal compresses and retains fluid or excludes contaminants as intended — not an approximation.
- Drop-In Installation: — Engineered to seat correctly in the original groove or bore without re-machining or shimming, allowing straightforward installation during routine service.
- Broad Vibratory Plate Compatibility: — Fits single-direction DPS3050 and DPS3060 plate compactors as well as reversible DPU 2870, DPU 2950, DPU 2960, and DPU 2970 models, covering a wide range of Wacker Neuson compaction equipment.
- Protects Internal Components: — A correctly functioning seal prevents fluid leakage and contaminant ingestion that can lead to accelerated wear on bearings, shafts, and housings within the exciter or drive assembly.
- Genuine OEM Confidence: — Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, part 5000023576 carries the same part number used in factory service documentation, eliminating guesswork when ordering for scheduled maintenance or field repairs.
A seal in a vibratory plate compactor serves as a critical barrier between moving internal components — such as exciter shafts, bearings, and gear drives — and the outside environment. It prevents lubricating oil or grease from escaping the housing while also keeping dirt, water, and debris from entering. When a seal fails or begins to weep, lubricant levels drop, friction increases, and internal components begin to wear at an accelerated rate. Replacing a worn seal promptly with the correct OEM part helps preserve the integrity of the surrounding assembly and keeps the plate operating at its rated compaction force.
