The Wacker Neuson is a genuine OEM Compression Spring designed for the DPU 7060 series reversible vibratory plate compactors. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this part meets the exact material and dimensional specifications of the original component installed at the factory. It is compatible with the DPU 7060, DPU 7060SC, DPU 7060Fe, DPU 7060Fet, and DPU 7060RC models — covering both standard and remote-controlled configurations. When you order part number, you can be confident you are getting the correct spring geometry and tension rating for your machine.
Key Features
- Correct Spring Rate for Reversible Plate Applications — Engineered to the precise coil tension and free-length spec required by the DPU 7060 platform, ensuring the spring performs as intended under compaction loads.
- Genuine OEM Component — Supplied by Wacker Neuson as an authorized replacement part, manufactured to the same material grade and temper as the original, with no substitutions or compromises.
- Drop-In Installation — Dimensionally identical to the factory spring, allowing it to seat and retain correctly in the existing housing without any modification to surrounding components.
- Broad DPU 7060 Series Coverage — A single part number covers the DPU 7060, DPU 7060SC, DPU 7060Fe, DPU 7060Fet, and DPU 7060RC, including remote-controlled variants used in trench and tight-access compaction work.
- Sustained Compaction Force — A compression spring in good condition maintains consistent mechanical engagement within the compactor's drive or exciter system; a fatigued or broken spring can cause erratic plate behavior and uneven compaction output.
A compression spring stores and releases mechanical energy to maintain tension or return force between moving components within the machine. In a reversible vibratory plate compactor like the DPU 7060 series, compression springs are used to preload or cushion assemblies — such as engine mounts, handle isolation systems, or exciter linkages — ensuring consistent operation under the high-frequency vibration these machines generate. When a compression spring weakens, cracks, or breaks, the mechanical balance it maintains is lost, which can lead to excess vibration transfer to the operator, inconsistent plate movement, or component wear from uncontrolled contact. Replacing a worn spring with the correct OEM part restores the intended operating characteristics of the compactor.
