The Wacker Neuson is a genuine OEM Crankcase Cover designed for the VP1340R, VP1340RW, VP1550R, VP1550RW, and VP2050R single-direction vibratory plate compactors. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this part matches the original component in fit, form, and function — no guesswork on compatibility. It is the correct replacement for the entire VP-series Value Vibratory Plate lineup spanning 13 kN to 20 kN compaction force ratings across 400 mm and 500 mm plate widths.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Sealing Integrity — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original material and dimensional spec, ensuring the cover forms a proper seal against crankcase oil leaks and contamination ingress.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Engineered to bolt directly onto VP-series plate compactors using the original mounting points, with no reworking of the crankcase housing needed.
- Broad VP-Series Compatibility — Fits the VP1340R, VP1340RW, VP1550R, VP1550RW, and VP2050R vibratory plates, covering the full Value Vibratory Plate range from 13 kN to 20 kN.
- Engine Protection — A correctly fitted crankcase cover keeps oil sealed in and debris sealed out, protecting internal engine components from accelerated wear and contamination damage.
- Verified Part Number Fit — Part number 5000151179 is the exact OEM reference for this cover across all listed VP-series models — confirm your model number before ordering to ensure accuracy.
The crankcase cover seals the lower engine housing on your vibratory plate compactor, keeping engine oil contained and preventing dust, moisture, and debris from entering the crankcase. On a compactor working in dirt, aggregate, or paving stone environments, a cracked, warped, or missing cover can lead to rapid oil loss and contamination of internal engine components. Replacing a damaged cover promptly with the correct OEM part — Wacker Neuson 5000151179 — restores the engine's protective envelope and prevents far more costly internal damage down the line.
