The Wacker Neuson Gear Wheel is a genuine OEM component designed for the DPU 100-70 and DPU 9070 series reversible vibratory plate compactors. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this part carries the same specifications as the component installed at the factory, ensuring a direct fit with no guesswork on compatibility. The is confirmed for multiple DPU 100-70 configurations, including the DPU 100-70Le and DPU 100-70Les variants, as well as the DPU 9070. Keep this part number on hand — it covers the full range of these heavy-duty diesel reversible plates used in soil and aggregate compaction.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Tooth Geometry — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's exact gear profile specifications, ensuring correct mesh, load transfer, and drive engagement within the compactor's exciter mechanism.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Engineered to the same dimensions and spline or bore tolerances as the original, so installation aligns with existing shafts and housings without modification.
- Broad DPU Series Coverage — Fits multiple DPU 100-70 build variants (including Le and Les configurations) and the DPU 9070, consolidating one part number across your fleet.
- Sustained Drive Performance — A correctly functioning gear wheel maintains consistent eccentric shaft rotation, delivering steady compaction force and centrifugal output. A worn or damaged gear causes erratic vibration, loss of compaction energy, and accelerated drivetrain wear.
- OEM Traceability — As a genuine Wacker Neuson part, the 5000096994 is fully traceable and sourced through authorized supply channels, supporting accurate service records for your equipment.
The gear wheel is a core power-transmission component within the exciter assembly of a reversible vibratory plate compactor. It transfers rotational force from the drive source to the eccentric shaft, generating the vibration that compacts soil and aggregate beneath the plate. When the gear wheel wears, chips, or fails, the exciter loses consistent rotational drive — leading to reduced compaction performance, increased vibration irregularity, and potential damage to surrounding drivetrain components. Replacing a worn gear wheel promptly restores the machine's rated compaction output and protects the broader exciter assembly from secondary wear.
