The Wacker Neuson Water Tank with Cap Set is a genuine OEM component designed for VPG165V, VPG165A, and VPG170A series vibratory plate compactors. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this part matches the original equipment specification exactly, ensuring a correct installation without guesswork. It is compatible with the 587mm/18in vibratory plate machines in the VPG series lineup, making it the right choice for operators maintaining their water distribution system in the field.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original material and capacity specifications for the VPG series water system, ensuring the tank holds and delivers the correct volume without leakage or premature failure.
- Complete Cap Set Included — Ships as a full Water Tank with Cap Set so the sealing system is replaced together, eliminating the risk of a worn cap undermining a new tank installation.
- Direct VPG Series Fitment — Verified fit for the VPG165V, VPG165A, and VPG170A 587mm/18in vibratory plate compactors — drop-in replacement for the original tank assembly.
- Protects Screed Water Flow — A cracked, leaking, or missing tank disrupts water delivery to the compactor's surface-wetting system, leading to material adhesion on the plate and reduced compaction quality on asphalt and paving stone jobs.
- Long-Term Field Durability — Built to withstand the vibration and environmental exposure inherent to plate compactor operation, maintaining consistent water delivery across extended paving and compaction runs.
The water tank on a VPG series vibratory plate compactor feeds a surface-wetting system that keeps water flowing to the base plate during operation on asphalt and paving stone surfaces. This prevents hot mix asphalt from sticking to the plate and ensures a clean, consistent pass across the surface. When the tank cracks, loses its seal, or the cap fails, water delivery stops — leading to material buildup on the plate, uneven compaction, and potential surface damage. Replacing the tank and cap together as a set restores the full integrity of the water system and gets the machine back to performing at full capacity.
