The Wacker Neuson Protective Frame is a genuine OEM component designed for the DPU 6055 series reversible vibratory plate compactors. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this part meets the exact specifications of the original equipment — ensuring it installs correctly and performs as intended right out of the box. The is a direct-fit replacement for multiple DPU 6055 configurations, including the 60 kN, 55 cm/22 in reversible plate variants. If your DPU 6055 frame is cracked, bent, or damaged from heavy-duty use, this genuine OEM part restores the machine to its original structural integrity.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original structural specifications, ensuring the same material grade, geometry, and mounting points as the factory-installed frame.
- Direct Bolt-On Replacement — Engineered to match the original mounting configuration of the DPU 6055, so installation aligns with existing hardware and attachment points without rework.
- Broad DPU 6055 Compatibility — Fits multiple DPU 6055 configurations, including the 60 kN reversible vibratory plate variants rated at 55 cm/22 in working width.
- Structural Protection Where It Counts — The protective frame shields critical machine components from impact damage during transport, operation, and jobsite handling — a worn or missing frame leaves the machine vulnerable to costly collateral damage.
- Verified Part Number — Part number 5000124490 is confirmed against Wacker Neuson's parts documentation for the DPU 6055 series, giving you confidence you're ordering the correct component.
The protective frame on a DPU reversible vibratory plate compactor serves as a structural guard around the machine's core components, absorbing impact and preventing damage from contact with trench walls, curbing, or rough terrain during operation and transit. On a heavy-duty machine like the DPU 6055 — rated at 60 kN of compaction force — the frame takes regular punishment and is subject to bending, cracking, or deformation over time. A damaged or missing protective frame not only risks exposing internal components to direct impact but can also create a safety hazard for the operator. Replacing a compromised frame promptly keeps the machine operating as designed and prevents more expensive downstream repairs.
