The Wacker Neuson is a genuine OEM Negative Pole Strap designed for the DPU 7060 series reversible vibratory plate compactors, including the DPU 7060, DPU 7060SC, DPU 7060Fe, DPU 7060Fet, and DPU 7060RC models. As a factory-sourced component, it meets the exact specifications of the original part it replaces, ensuring correct fit and function within the machine's electrical grounding circuit. This strap is a direct replacement that installs in the same position as the factory original, with no adaptation needed to the existing mounting points or terminals. If your DPU 7060 series compactor is showing signs of electrical faults or grounding issues, verifying the condition of part is a logical first step.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Grounding Integrity — Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this strap is manufactured to the original conductivity and terminal specification required for a reliable ground path in the DPU 7060 series electrical system.
- Direct Bolt-On Replacement — Matches the original mounting hole pattern and terminal connections, dropping straight into place on the DPU 7060, DPU 7060SC, DPU 7060Fe, DPU 7060Fet, and DPU 7060RC.
- DPU 7060 Series Fitment — Confirmed compatibility across the full DPU 7060 family, covering both standard and remote-controlled variants of this 70 kN reversible plate compactor.
- Protects Downstream Electrical Components — A sound negative pole strap maintains a stable ground reference for the engine and control systems; a corroded or broken strap can cause erratic electrical behavior, starting failures, or damage to connected components.
- Electrical Safety Compliance — Correct grounding is a fundamental safety requirement for any diesel-powered machine. Using the genuine OEM strap ensures the grounding circuit meets the original design intent and reduces the risk of stray currents or shorts.
The negative pole strap forms part of the machine's primary electrical grounding circuit, creating a low-resistance return path between the battery's negative terminal and the engine or chassis ground point. Without a secure and conductive ground strap, the entire electrical system — including the starter motor, sensors, and any remote-control electronics on SC and RC variants — can behave erratically or fail to operate altogether. Over time, corrosion, vibration fatigue, and mechanical stress can degrade or break the strap, making it a routine inspection item during servicing of any heavy-duty compaction equipment.
