The Wacker Neuson 5000130040 is a genuine OEM Stone Guard designed for AP and VP series vibratory plate compactors, including the AP 1135A, AP 1550A, AP 1550AW, AP 1550R, VP 1030A, VP 1030R, and VP 1135AW models. As a direct OEM component, the 5000130040 is manufactured to the same specifications as the original part, ensuring a straight drop-in fit with no guesswork on compatibility. This Stone Guard is a key protective component for plate compactors operating on jobsites where loose aggregate, paving stones, or debris can be thrown during operation. Confirm your model number against the fitment list before ordering to make sure this is the correct guard for your machine.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction: — Manufactured to original Wacker Neuson specification, with the correct material grade and geometry to match the baseplate profile of AP and VP series compactors.
- Direct Replacement Fit: — Mounts in the original mounting position with existing hardware, replacing the factory stone guard without requiring bracket modification or adapter plates.
- Broad AP and VP Series Compatibility: — Verified fitment across AP 1135A, AP 1135R, AP 1550A, AP 1550AW, AP 1550R, VP 1030A, VP 1030R, VP 1135AW, and VP 1135(RAW) plate compactors.
- Operator and Bystander Protection: — Shields against stone and debris ejection during compaction of aggregate base, paving stone, and asphalt surfaces — a meaningful safety consideration on active worksites.
- Restored Machine Integrity: — A cracked or missing stone guard exposes both the operator and surrounding equipment to projectile debris; replacing it promptly restores the machine to its intended safe operating condition.
The stone guard on a vibratory plate compactor is a protective shield mounted at the front or rear of the machine to deflect loose stones, aggregate, and debris that can be displaced during compaction passes. Without it, material thrown by the vibrating baseplate poses a hazard to the operator, bystanders, and nearby equipment. When the guard becomes cracked, broken, or lost, the machine should not be operated on loose-aggregate or paving-stone surfaces until the guard is replaced — part number 5000130040 restores that protection directly.
