The Wacker Neuson Thrust Washer is a genuine OEM component designed for the DPU 7060 and DPU 7060RC reversible vibratory plate compactors. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this thrust washer matches the original part specification for a drop-in replacement with no guesswork. It is confirmed compatible with both the standard DPU 7060 and the remote-controlled DPU 7060RC variants — heavy-duty 70 kN diesel reversible plates built for demanding soil and aggregate compaction work. Keeping drivetrain wear components like this one up to spec ensures your machine delivers consistent compaction force and avoids premature damage to adjacent rotating components.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Material Grade — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original hardness and dimensional tolerances, ensuring the washer handles the axial load demands of a 70 kN reversible plate without deforming or wearing prematurely.
- Direct Drivetrain Fit — Seats into the same position as the original, maintaining correct axial clearance and alignment within the drivetrain assembly without shimming or modification.
- Confirmed Fitment for DPU 7060 Series — Verified for the DPU 7060 and DPU 7060RC reversible vibratory plate compactors, covering both the standard and remote-controlled configurations in this 70 kN, 60 cm drum-width family.
- Protects Rotating Components — A correctly functioning thrust washer absorbs axial forces and prevents metal-on-metal contact between rotating shafts and housings; a worn or missing washer accelerates damage to costlier drivetrain parts.
- Verified Part Number — Order with confidence using Wacker Neuson part number 5000037361 to confirm you are receiving the correct washer for your specific machine.
A thrust washer is a thin, hardened disc positioned within a rotating assembly to control axial (end-to-end) movement between a shaft and its housing or between two moving components. On a heavy-duty reversible vibratory plate like the DPU 7060, the drivetrain experiences significant oscillating forces, and the thrust washer absorbs the axial load that would otherwise be transferred directly onto surrounding components. When a thrust washer wears thin or fails, those forces cause accelerated wear on shafts, bearings, and housings — turning a low-cost maintenance item into a much larger repair.
