The Wacker Neuson Grooved Ball Bearing is a genuine OEM component designed for BPU and DPU series reversible vibratory plate compactors. This bearing is a direct-fit replacement sourced from Wacker Neuson, ensuring it meets the exact tolerances and load ratings required by the original design. Verified fitment spans a wide range of models including the BPU 2540A, BPU 3050A, DPU 2440H, DPU 2560H, DPU 3050H, DPU 3060H, DPU 3070H, and many additional BPU and DPU variants. When it is time to restore smooth, efficient operation to your plate compactor, part number is the correct choice.
Key Features
- OEM Precision Load Rating — Manufactured to the exact radial and axial load tolerances specified for BPU and DPU vibratory plate compactor eccentric shafts, maintaining correct vibration output and compaction force.
- Drop-In Installation — Matches the original bearing seat dimensions exactly, seating into the housing without modification for a straightforward, time-saving swap.
- Broad BPU and DPU Compatibility — Confirmed fitment across gasoline BPU models (BPU 2440A, BPU 2450A, BPU 2540A, BPU 2950A, BPU 3050A and US variants) and diesel DPU models (DPU 2430F through DPU 3070H, including TS and HE variants).
- Sustained Compaction Performance — A worn or failed grooved ball bearing causes excessive vibration noise, uneven compaction force, and accelerated wear on surrounding drive components; replacing it with 5000048565 restores full eccentric shaft function and consistent plate output.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson OEM Part — Supplied as an authorized OEM component, carrying the same material grade and groove geometry as the bearing installed at the factory, so quality is not a variable.
A grooved ball bearing — also known as a deep-groove ball bearing — supports the rotating eccentric shaft inside a vibratory plate compactor, allowing it to spin freely while absorbing both radial loads from the shaft weight and axial loads generated by the vibration mechanism. In a reversible plate like the BPU and DPU series, this bearing is under continuous cyclic stress every time the machine is running, making it one of the higher-wear items in the drivetrain. When the bearing begins to fail, operators typically notice increased noise, heat buildup at the bearing housing, a drop in plate vibration intensity, or visible play in the shaft — all signs that replacement with the correct part, 5000048565, is needed to keep compaction output at the level the machine was built to deliver.
