The Wacker Neuson Guard Plate is a genuine OEM component designed for the DPU4545, DPU5545, DPU6055, and DPU6555 series reversible vibratory plate compactors. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this Guard Plate matches the original part in material, dimensions, and fitment — exactly as it left the factory. It covers an extensive range of DPU configurations including He, Heh, Hech, Heap, Hes, Hesh, and Hec variants across both standard and US-spec machines. When you need an exact drop-in replacement, part number is the correct choice for these heavy-duty reversible plate compactors.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction: — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original material and dimensional specifications, ensuring the Guard Plate provides the same level of protection as the part it replaces.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement: — Mounts using the original hardware points with no reworking of the baseplate or surrounding structure required.
- Broad DPU Series Coverage: — Confirmed fitment across DPU4545, DPU5545, DPU6055, and DPU6555 reversible vibratory plate compactors in multiple configuration variants including He, Heh, Hech, Heap, Hes, and Hec models.
- Structural Protection: — Guards critical undercarriage components from impact, debris, and abrasion during compaction passes — worn or missing guard plates leave drive and exciter components exposed to costly damage.
- Safety Relevance: — An intact Guard Plate prevents loose material from contacting rotating or vibrating assemblies beneath the machine, reducing the risk of debris ejection during operation.
- Verified Part Number: — Order with confidence; 5000095068 is the genuine Wacker Neuson part number covering the full range of listed DPU models and regional variants.
A Guard Plate is a protective shield mounted to the underside or lower frame of a reversible vibratory plate compactor, designed to deflect rocks, aggregate, and compacted debris away from the machine's vulnerable mechanical and hydraulic components. On heavy-duty DPU-series machines, which operate under high centrifugal force on dense soil and aggregate, this protection is especially critical — the exciter housing, drive components, and water tank fittings can all sustain damage if left unshielded. When a Guard Plate cracks, bends, or goes missing, the exposed components beneath are subject to direct impact, potentially leading to premature wear or failure of far more expensive parts.
