The Wacker Neuson Side Element is a genuine OEM component designed for the DPU 6055 series reversible vibratory plate compactors. As a direct OEM replacement, this part is sourced from Wacker Neuson and built to the same specifications as the original, ensuring a correct, trouble-free installation. It is confirmed compatible across the DPU 6055, DPU 6055H, DPU 6055He, and DPU 6055 WC variants — covering both standard and heavy-duty configurations of this 60 kN, 55 cm reversible plate. Verifying your model number against the DPU 6055 series before ordering takes only a moment and ensures you receive the right part the first time.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction: — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original material and dimensional standards, so the Side Element fits and performs exactly as the factory-installed part.
- Broad DPU 6055 Series Coverage: — Compatible with DPU 6055, DPU 6055H, DPU 6055He, and DPU 6055 WC machine variants, including multiple production runs of this 60 kN reversible plate compactor.
- Direct Bolt-On Replacement: — Matches the original mounting profile and attachment points, allowing straightforward installation without rework or modification to surrounding components.
- Structural Integrity Under Compaction Loads: — A correctly fitted Side Element helps maintain the chassis geometry of the plate, ensuring vibration forces are channeled efficiently into the ground rather than stressing adjacent components.
- Protects Internal Components: — The Side Element acts as a barrier against debris, aggregate, and moisture ingress during operation; a damaged or missing element exposes internal parts to accelerated wear.
The Side Element is a structural and protective panel fitted to the outer body of the DPU 6055 reversible vibratory plate compactor. It shields the machine's internal drive and exciter components from impact damage, compaction debris, and environmental exposure during soil and aggregate compaction work. When a Side Element becomes cracked, bent, or worn through, it compromises the protection of the components beneath it and can allow contaminants to reach areas of the machine that are far more costly to repair.
