The Wacker Neuson Fixing Bar is a genuine OEM component designed for the DPU 2870, BPU 2950A, DPU 2950, DPU 2960, and DPU 2970 reversible vibratory plate compactors. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this fixing bar matches the original part specifications so it installs correctly without modification to the assembly. It is confirmed compatible across multiple machines in the DPU and BPU series, covering both 50 cm and 70 cm plate-width configurations. When your compactor needs a replacement fixing bar, part number is the correct OEM choice to restore the machine to full working condition.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Structural Integrity — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original material and dimensional spec, ensuring the bar holds its position under the sustained vibration loads these compactors generate.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Matches the original mounting points and hardware interface on the DPU and BPU series, so the bar seats and secures exactly as the factory unit did.
- Broad DPU and BPU Series Compatibility — Fits DPU 2870, DPU 2950, DPU 2960, DPU 2970, and BPU 2950A, covering both 50 cm/20 in and 70 cm/28 in plate-width variants.
- Sustained Vibration Resistance — A correctly fitted fixing bar keeps critical assemblies secured during operation; a worn or failed bar can lead to component movement, accelerated wear, and loss of compaction performance.
- Verified OEM Part Number — Part number 5000049946 is the exact Wacker Neuson reference for this application, eliminating guesswork when cross-referencing against your machine's parts documentation.
A fixing bar is a structural retention component that holds an assembly or sub-assembly firmly in place within the machine's frame or housing. On reversible vibratory plate compactors, components are subjected to constant high-frequency vibration during operation, making secure mechanical fastening essential to safe and effective performance. When a fixing bar becomes worn, cracked, or lost, the assembly it retains can shift or become unstable, leading to uneven compaction, increased stress on surrounding components, and potential operational failure.
