The Wacker Neuson Cheese Head Screw is a genuine OEM fastener designed for the BPU, DPU, and DPS series reversible vibratory plate compactors. As a direct factory replacement, this screw carries the exact thread specification, head geometry, and material grade needed to maintain a secure, correctly torqued connection in demanding compaction applications. It fits an extensive range of models including the BPU 3545A, BPU 4045A, BPU 5045A, BPU 5545A, DPU 4045H, DPU 4045Y, DPU 5045H, DPU 5545H, DPU 6055, DPU 6555H, DPU 7060, DPS 1850H, and DPS 1850Y, among many others. Sourcing a genuine Wacker Neuson part like the ensures the fastener meets the original assembly specification without guesswork.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Fastener Grade — Manufactured to the exact thread class, head profile, and tensile rating specified for these reversible vibratory plate compactors, so clamping force stays consistent under high-vibration operating conditions.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — The cheese head profile and thread form match the original hardware exactly, allowing straightforward installation into existing threaded bores without chasing or re-tapping.
- Broad BPU / DPU / DPS Compatibility — Verified for the BPU 3545A through BPU 5545A gasoline reversible plates and the full DPU 4045–7060 and DPS 1850 diesel reversible plate families, covering both standard and specialty configurations (asphalt, remote-control, combination).
- Vibration-Resistant Holding Power — A correctly specified screw maintains joint integrity across thousands of compaction cycles; an under-spec or worn fastener can allow critical assemblies to loosen, affecting compaction output and machine safety.
- Verified Part Number Traceability — Part number 5000044634 is the factory-assigned OEM reference, giving technicians a confirmed cross-check against the machine's parts manual before ordering.
A cheese head screw is a cylindrical-head fastener whose wide, flat-topped head distributes clamping load over a broader surface area than a standard hex bolt — making it well suited to the high-vibration environment inside a vibratory plate compactor. In a reversible plate like the BPU or DPU series, fasteners in the exciter housing, drive system, and chassis assemblies are subjected to constant cyclic stress; a fastener that is incorrect in thread pitch, length, or material grade can back out or shear under load. Replacing a worn or missing screw with the correct OEM part restores the designed clamping force and keeps critical components aligned and secure throughout the compaction cycle.
