The Wacker Neuson Rope is a genuine OEM component designed for a wide range of Wacker Neuson vibratory plate compactors, including the VP1340R, VP1340RW, VP1550R, VP1550RW, VP2050R, VP2050RW, AP1550R, and BPU 2540 series, as well as the GH3500 generator and TEH 1 high frequency demolition set. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, part is manufactured to the same specification as the rope installed at the factory, ensuring a correct, drop-in fit every time. This rope is a straightforward service item that wears through regular operation, and replacing it with the correct OEM part keeps your equipment running as intended across all compatible machines.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction: Correct material grade and dimensional spec for pull-start and operational rope applications across the VP, AP, and BPU compactor families.
- Broad Machine Compatibility: Fits VP1340R, VP1340RW, VP1550R, VP1550RW, VP2050R, VP2050RW, AP1550R, BPU 2540, GH3500, and TEH 1 — a single part number covering multiple Wacker Neuson product lines.
- Direct OEM Replacement: Installs into the existing rope routing or pull-start mechanism without modification, matching the original anchor points and length.
- Protects Continued Operation: A worn or frayed rope can leave a machine unable to start or operate safely; replacing it promptly with part 5000158429 restores full function.
- Verified Part Number: Stocking Wacker Neuson 5000158429 ensures you have the correct rope on hand before it becomes an unplanned work stoppage on a compaction or demolition site.
A rope on construction equipment most commonly serves as a recoil starter rope on a pull-start engine or as a control/guide rope on certain plate compactor and demolition set configurations. In a pull-start application, the rope transfers the manual pull force to the engine's recoil starter mechanism to initiate cranking. When the rope frays, snaps, or becomes too short from repeated knotting, the engine cannot be started manually, taking the machine out of service until the rope is replaced. Using the correct OEM rope ensures the proper diameter, length, and tensile strength are maintained so the recoil mechanism functions reliably every time.
