The Wacker Neuson Eccentric Weight is a genuine OEM component designed for the DPU 6055 series reversible vibratory plate compactors. As a direct factory replacement, this part meets the original engineering specifications for mass and balance that the DPU 6055 platform was built around. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, the ensures a drop-in fit across the full DPU 6055 model range including the DPU 6055He and DPU 6055 WC variants. When you need to restore full compaction output to your machine, this is the part to reach for.
Key Features
- OEM Mass and Balance Specification — Manufactured to the exact weight and geometry required to generate the DPU 6055's rated 60 kN compaction force — no guesswork on vibration output.
- Direct-Fit Replacement — Mounts to the exciter shaft in the same position as the original, with matching bolt pattern and profile for a straightforward swap.
- Broad DPU 6055 Coverage — Confirmed fitment across the DPU 6055, DPU 6055H, DPU 6055He, and DPU 6055 WC reversible vibratory plate compactor variants.
- Restore Full Compaction Force — A worn or damaged eccentric weight causes uneven vibration, reduced centrifugal force, and inconsistent soil compaction results; this genuine OEM part brings output back to spec.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson OEM Part — Produced under Wacker Neuson's manufacturing standards, carrying part number 5000126261 for straightforward verification against your machine's parts diagram.
The eccentric weight is a core component of the exciter assembly in a reversible vibratory plate compactor. Mounted on the exciter shaft, it rotates at high speed to generate the centrifugal force that drives the compaction plate up and down against the ground — that vibration is what consolidates soil, gravel, or aggregate beneath the machine. On a reversible plate like the DPU 6055, the orientation of the eccentric weight also governs the direction of travel, so its condition directly affects both compaction efficiency and maneuverability. If the weight is cracked, worn down, or out of balance, the machine will produce reduced centrifugal force, erratic movement, and uneven compaction results that can compromise the integrity of the finished surface.
