The Wacker Neuson Seal is a genuine OEM seal designed for DPS and DPU series vibratory plate compactors, including the DPS3050, DPS3060, DPU 2870, DPU 2950, DPU 2960, and DPU 2970. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this part meets the exact tolerances and material specifications of the original component installed at the factory. It is a direct-fit replacement that installs into the same position as the factory seal with no adaptation needed. Whether you're servicing a single-direction DPS plate or a reversible DPU unit, part number ensures your compactor is restored to proper working condition.
Key Features
- Correct Material Grade for Sealing Duty — Manufactured to OEM material specification, ensuring the seal maintains proper compression and fluid retention under the vibration loads typical of plate compactor operation.
- Direct-Fit Replacement — Engineered to the same dimensional profile as the original, dropping into the factory seat without rework or modification to adjacent components.
- Broad DPS and DPU Series Coverage — Confirmed fitment across DPS3050, DPS3060, DPU 2870, DPU 2950, DPU 2960, and DPU 2970 single-direction and reversible vibratory plate compactors.
- Prevents Fluid Loss and Contamination — A worn or failed seal allows lubricant to escape and contaminants to enter critical internal assemblies, accelerating wear and leading to more extensive repairs.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson OEM Part — Supplied as an authentic Wacker Neuson component, backed by the manufacturer's part number 5000023578 for confident, verified ordering.
A seal in a vibratory plate compactor serves as a barrier that keeps lubricants contained within moving assemblies while preventing dirt, water, and debris from entering. On plate compactors like the DPS and DPU series, seals are subjected to constant vibration and cyclic loading, which gradually degrades seal material and compression. When a seal fails, lubricant leaks out and contaminants infiltrate the assembly, which can cause rapid wear to bearings, shafts, and other internal components — turning a simple seal replacement into a far more costly repair if left unaddressed.
