The Wacker Neuson Apron is a genuine OEM component designed for the DPU 7060 series reversible vibratory plate compactors. This OEM part is sourced directly through Wacker Neuson's authorized parts program, ensuring it matches the exact specifications of the original component installed at the factory. Confirmed fitment covers the DPU 7060, DPU 7060SC, DPU 7060RC, DPU 7060Fe, and DPU 7060Fet models. When you need to restore your heavy-duty reversible plate to full working condition, part number is the correct replacement to reach for.
Key Features
- OEM-Matched Construction — Manufactured to the same material and dimensional standards as the original apron, ensuring correct contact, coverage, and wear characteristics for this plate compactor family.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Engineered to mount in the original apron position on the DPU 7060 platform without reworking mounting points or hardware.
- Broad DPU 7060 Series Coverage — A single part number covers the DPU 7060, DPU 7060SC, DPU 7060RC, DPU 7060Fe, and DPU 7060Fet, simplifying parts ordering across your fleet.
- Protects the Plate and Compaction Surface — The apron shields the leading edge of the compaction deck from debris deflection and impact, extending the service life of surrounding components.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson Part — Carries the full backing of Wacker Neuson's OEM parts program, so you can be confident the part number, fit, and material grade are correct for this application.
The apron on a reversible vibratory plate compactor is a protective shroud or deflector panel fitted to the outer edge of the compaction unit. It guards the base plate assembly and surrounding components from material buildup, debris strike, and edge impact during compaction passes on soil, aggregate, and trench backfill applications. When the apron becomes cracked, bent, or worn through, it can allow debris to reach components it was designed to protect and may affect the clean travel edge of the plate across the work surface. Replacing a damaged apron with the correct OEM part restores that protection and keeps the machine performing as intended.
