The Wacker Neuson is a genuine OEM Overrunning Clutch designed for the DPU 7060 and DPU 7060RC reversible vibratory plate compactors. As a direct Wacker Neuson OEM part, the is manufactured to the exact specifications of the original component, ensuring a correct, trouble-free installation with no guesswork on fitment. This clutch is confirmed compatible with both the standard DPU 7060 and the remote-controlled DPU 7060RC variants — 70 kN class diesel reversible plates running a 60 cm / 24 in compaction width. When you need to restore full drive performance on a heavy-duty reversible plate, sourcing the correct OEM part is the straightforward way to get the machine back to spec.
Key Features
- OEM-Matched Engagement Tolerances — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original clutch specification, maintaining the precise engagement and release characteristics the DPU 7060 drivetrain relies on.
- Direct Bolt-In Replacement — Engineered to mount directly into the existing drive assembly on the DPU 7060 and DPU 7060RC, matching original shaft interfaces and fastener patterns.
- Confirmed Fitment: DPU 7060 Series — Compatible with the DPU 7060 (standard) and DPU 7060RC (remote-controlled) diesel reversible vibratory plate compactors in the 70 kN class.
- Protects Drivetrain Under Reversing Loads — A functioning overrunning clutch absorbs the shock of direction changes in a reversible plate, protecting the engine and exciter from damaging load spikes. A worn unit can cause rough reversals, excessive vibration, and accelerated drivetrain wear.
- Genuine OEM Part Number Verified — Part number 5000106112 is the factory-designated replacement, eliminating the risk of ordering an incompatible or incorrect-specification component.
The overrunning clutch — also known as a one-way or freewheel clutch — is a critical drive component in a reversible vibratory plate compactor. It allows the exciter mechanism to change compaction direction without transmitting sudden reverse torque back through the engine, acting as a mechanical buffer between the drive source and the exciter unit. When the overrunning clutch wears or fails, operators typically notice harsh direction-change behavior, increased vibration in the drive assembly, or a loss of smooth reversing control — all of which place additional stress on surrounding drivetrain components and reduce compaction effectiveness.
