The Wacker Neuson Lock Plate is a genuine OEM component designed for the VP1340R, VP1340RW, VP1550R, VP1550RW, and VP2050R single-direction vibratory plate compactors. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this part meets the exact design and material standards of the original component installed at the factory. It fits across the VP-series Value Vibratory Plate lineup, covering both standard and wide-plate configurations in the 13 kN, 15 kN, and 20 kN force classes. If your compactor's locking mechanism is worn, damaged, or missing, part number restores proper function quickly and correctly.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Material Integrity — Manufactured to the same hardness and dimensional tolerances as the original lock plate, ensuring consistent clamping force and resistance to wear under continuous vibration.
- Drop-In Installation — Matches the original mounting geometry of the VP-series plate compactor frame, allowing straightforward removal of the old plate and installation of the new one without reworking surrounding components.
- Broad VP-Series Compatibility — Confirmed fitment across five VP models: VP1340R, VP1340RW, VP1550R, VP1550RW, and VP2050R, spanning the full 400 mm and 500 mm Value Vibratory Plate range.
- Maintains Structural Integrity Under Load — A correctly functioning lock plate keeps critical assemblies secured during operation; a worn or cracked plate can allow unwanted movement that degrades compaction performance and accelerates wear on adjacent components.
- Verified OEM Part Number — Ordering by Wacker Neuson part number 5000151181 eliminates guesswork and confirms you are receiving the exact component specified for your machine.
A lock plate is a structural retention component that secures a moving or removable assembly in a fixed position during machine operation. On a vibratory plate compactor, the constant high-frequency vibration generated by the exciter places significant stress on every fastened joint — a lock plate prevents unwanted loosening or displacement of the components it retains, keeping the machine operating as intended. When a lock plate cracks, deforms, or goes missing, the assembly it holds can shift under load, leading to uneven compaction output and potential damage to surrounding hardware.
