Wacker Neuson 5000028582 Screw 5/16-24 X 1-1/4 Socket Head

The Wacker Neuson is a genuine OEM Screw 5/16-24 X 1-1/4 Socket Head designed for the DPS1850Y and DPU 2950Y reversible vibratory plate compactors. As a factory-sourced component, it meets the exact thread specification and material grade called out in the original Wacker Neuson bill of materials. This screw is confirmed to fit both the DPS1850Y Vibration Plate and the DPU 2950Y Reversible Vibratory Plate, making it a straightforward service part for technicians maintaining either machine. Ordering by part number ensures you receive the correct fastener the first time.

Key Features

• Genuine OEM Fastener Grade — Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this screw meets the thread class and tensile rating specified for the assembly it secures — no risk of under-spec fasteners loosening under vibration loads.
• Correct Thread Form: 5/16-24 UNF — The fine-thread 5/16-24 profile seats precisely into the tapped bore it was engineered for, providing full thread engagement without the risk of cross-threading or stripping.
• Socket Head Drive — The internal hex socket head allows torque to be applied cleanly with a standard Allen/hex key, useful in tight clearance areas common in plate compactor assemblies.
• Verified Fitment for DPS1850Y and DPU 2950Y — Confirmed by Wacker Neuson part records to fit both the DPS1850Y Vibration Plate and the DPU 2950Y Reversible Vibratory Plate compactor families.
• Vibration-Resistant Retention — A correctly torqued OEM-spec socket head cap screw maintains clamping force through the high-frequency vibration cycles these plate compactors generate during operation — a loose or incorrect fastener can compromise the integrity of the assembly it holds.

A socket head cap screw like the 5000028582 serves as a precision fastener that clamps and retains critical components within the plate compactor's assembly. In high-vibration equipment such as reversible vibratory plates, fasteners are subjected to continuous cyclic stress that can cause under-spec or worn screws to back out, leading to component misalignment or damage. Using the correct OEM fastener with the proper thread engagement and material strength is essential to keeping the assembly torqued and secure throughout the machine's service life.
