The Wacker Neuson Eccentric Weight is a genuine OEM component designed for the DPU 7060 series reversible vibratory plate compactors, including the DPU 7060, DPU 7060SC, DPU 7060Fe, DPU 7060Fet, and DPU 7060RC. As a direct factory replacement, this part matches the original mass, geometry, and balance specifications required to maintain proper compaction output on your machine. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, it ensures the vibratory system performs exactly as engineered for heavy-duty soil and aggregate compaction applications.
Key Features
- Correct Mass and Balance: — Manufactured to OEM tolerances so rotational balance and compaction force output remain consistent with the original design of the DPU 7060 series.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement: — Engineered to mount in the same position and orientation as the original, with no alterations to the exciter housing or shaft needed.
- Broad DPU 7060 Series Coverage: — Confirmed fitment across the DPU 7060, DPU 7060SC, DPU 7060Fe, DPU 7060Fet, and DPU 7060RC reversible vibratory plate compactors.
- Restores Full Compaction Force: — A worn or damaged eccentric weight reduces centrifugal force output, resulting in uneven or insufficient compaction; replacing it restores the machine's rated 70 kN performance.
- Genuine OEM Durability: — Produced to the same material and hardness standards as the original part, resisting the high-cycle fatigue stress inherent to continuous vibratory plate operation.
The eccentric weight is a core component of a vibratory plate compactor's exciter system. Mounted on a rotating shaft inside the exciter housing, its offset mass generates the centrifugal force that drives the plate's compaction vibration. On a reversible plate like the DPU 7060 series, paired eccentric weights are phased to control both the direction and intensity of that vibration, enabling the machine to move forward or reverse on command. If an eccentric weight becomes damaged, cracked, or loses mass, the compaction force drops and the machine may vibrate erratically or lose directional control — both of which compromise compaction quality and place additional stress on surrounding drivetrain components.
