The Wacker Neuson is a genuine OEM Swivel Arm designed for BPU and DPU series reversible vibratory plate compactors. As a direct OEM component, it is manufactured to the exact tolerances and material specifications required for proper articulation and steering control on these machines. This part fits a broad range of models including the BPU 5045A, BPU 3545A, DPU 4045H, DPU 5045H, and DPU 6055, covering both gasoline-powered BPU and diesel-powered DPU variants. Sourcing the correct OEM swivel arm ensures the machine's directional control system operates as intended, maintaining productivity on compaction jobs.
Key Features
- OEM-Matched Pivot Geometry — Manufactured to the exact pivot dimensions and material grade specified for BPU and DPU plate compactors, ensuring proper articulation travel and load transfer.
- Direct Bolt-On Replacement — Engineered to mount in the original swivel arm position with no modification to the steering or handle linkage assembly.
- Broad BPU and DPU Compatibility — Confirmed fitment across the BPU 5045A, BPU 3545A, DPU 4045H, DPU 5045H, and DPU 6055 reversible vibratory plate compactor series.
- Restored Directional Control — A worn or damaged swivel arm causes imprecise steering response; replacing it with part 5000065063 restores the operator's ability to guide the plate accurately in both forward and reverse passes.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson Quality — Sourced directly through the Wacker Neuson OEM supply chain, so construction, fit, and finish match the original component exactly.
The swivel arm is a structural pivot component in the steering and handle linkage system of a reversible vibratory plate compactor. It connects the operator handle assembly to the machine frame, allowing the operator to steer the plate in both forward and reverse directions during compaction passes. When the swivel arm becomes worn, bent, or cracked, steering becomes sluggish or unpredictable, making it difficult to control the compactor accurately on soil or aggregate surfaces — and placing additional stress on surrounding linkage components. Replacing a failed swivel arm promptly keeps the machine responsive and the compaction pattern consistent.
