The Wacker Neuson Gasket Set is a genuine OEM component designed for the DPU4545, DPU5545, DPU6055, and DPU6555 series reversible vibratory plate compactors. As a direct OEM replacement sourced through authorized Wacker Neuson supply channels, this gasket set delivers the material grade and sealing integrity specified for these heavy-duty diesel-powered reversible plates. Fitment spans a broad range of DPU6555, DPU5545, DPU4545, and DPU6055 variants, covering He, Heh, Hec, Hech, Heap, Hesh, and related sub-configurations. Keep on hand as a standard service item whenever performing engine or exciter maintenance on these machines.
Key Features
- OEM-Spec Sealing Material — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's own material and compression specifications, ensuring consistent sealing performance across all mating surfaces on these high-vibration diesel compactors.
- Drop-In Engine and Exciter Compatibility — Engineered to align directly with the gasket surfaces of DPU4545, DPU5545, DPU6055, and DPU6555 series machines with no trimming or adaptation of sealing surfaces.
- Wide DPU Series Coverage — A single part number covers He, Heh, Hec, Hech, Heap, Hesh, Hecs, and additional sub-variants across the DPU4545 through DPU6555 model range, simplifying parts procurement for mixed fleets.
- Leak Prevention Under Heavy Load — Proper gasket integrity prevents oil and fluid migration that would otherwise lead to pressure loss, exciter contamination, or engine damage during sustained compaction work.
- Correct Fit for High-Vibration Applications — These reversible plates operate under continuous vibration loads; using a gasket set built to the original specification maintains joint integrity where generic alternatives may compress unevenly or fail prematurely.
A gasket set provides the complete collection of sealing gaskets required when opening and reassembling an engine or exciter housing during service. On reversible vibratory plate compactors like the DPU series, gaskets seal critical joints between the engine block, exciter unit, and associated covers, preventing oil leaks and maintaining correct internal pressure. When gaskets harden, crack, or are disturbed during a repair, replacing the full set — rather than individual pieces — ensures every sealing surface is restored to spec and eliminates the risk of a secondary leak following a service interval.
