The Wacker Neuson is a genuine OEM Eccentric Weight designed for the BPU 2540A, BPU 2540A US, DPU 2540H, DPU 2550H, DPU 2560H, and DPU 2560H-TS reversible vibratory plate compactors. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this part meets the exact engineering specifications of the original component installed at the factory. It is a direct fit for both BPU (gasoline) and DPU (diesel) variants in the 2540–2560 series, covering a wide range of reversible plate models in the lineup. If your compactor is losing vibratory force or producing uneven compaction output, the eccentric weight is a primary component to inspect and replace.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Mass and Balance Specification — Manufactured to the exact mass and offset geometry required to generate correct centrifugal compaction force in the BPU and DPU vibration system.
- Direct-Fit Replacement — Matches the original mounting configuration inside the exciter housing, allowing straightforward installation without modification to the assembly.
- Broad Series Compatibility — Fits BPU 2540A, BPU 2540A US, DPU 2540H, DPU 2550H, DPU 2560H, and DPU 2560H-TS reversible vibratory plate compactors, covering both gasoline and diesel-powered models in the 2540–2560 family.
- Restored Compaction Output — A correctly weighted and balanced eccentric restores rated centrifugal force, ensuring the plate delivers consistent, even compaction across soil and aggregate surfaces.
- Vibration System Integrity — Worn or damaged eccentric weights cause vibration imbalance, accelerated bearing wear, and reduced plate effectiveness; replacing with an OEM part protects the surrounding exciter components.
The eccentric weight is the core driver of vibration in a reversible vibratory plate compactor. Mounted on the exciter shaft inside the vibration housing, it generates centrifugal force as it rotates — that force is what causes the plate to vibrate and compact the material beneath it. On reversible models like the BPU and DPU series, dual eccentric weights are phased to control the direction of travel as well as compaction intensity. When an eccentric weight is worn, cracked, or has shifted out of balance, the plate loses compaction force, may pull unevenly to one side, and puts added stress on the exciter bearings and shaft. Replacing the 5000125356 Eccentric Weight restores the machine to its rated performance and prevents secondary damage to the wider vibration assembly.
