The Wacker Neuson Cylinder Head is a genuine OEM component designed for the BS50-4As, BS60-4As, BS65-4As, BS68-4As, BS70-4As, BS72-4As, and BS62-4A series vibratory rammers, as well as the VP1030A and WP1030A single-direction vibratory plate compactors. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this cylinder head meets the exact specifications required for proper engine sealing and compression in these machines. Using the correct OEM part ensures the engine assembly performs as originally engineered, maintaining consistent power output across demanding compaction applications. If you are servicing a BS-4As rammer or a VP/WP1030A plate, part number is the verified direct replacement.
Key Features
- OEM Combustion Sealing Integrity — Cast and machined to Wacker Neuson's original compression and sealing tolerances, ensuring no combustion gas bypass at the head-to-cylinder interface.
- Direct Bolt-On Replacement — Matches the original head gasket surface, port geometry, and bolt pattern for a straightforward installation on compatible engines.
- Broad Fitment Across Rammer and Plate Families — Confirmed fit for BS50-4As, BS60-4As, BS65-4As, BS68-4As, BS70-4As, BS72-4As, BS62-4A series rammers, and VP1030A and WP1030A vibratory plates.
- Sustained Engine Compression — A correctly seated cylinder head maintains the compression ratio the engine depends on for reliable starting and full stroke power during trench and soil compaction work.
- Fuel System Safety Compliance — Correct head sealing prevents combustion gases from entering the fuel or intake circuit, which is critical for safe operation on fuel-powered compaction equipment.
The cylinder head forms the top of the engine's combustion chamber, sealing the cylinder bore and housing the valve ports that control the intake and exhaust cycle. It works in conjunction with the head gasket to maintain compression pressure — without adequate compression, the engine will struggle to start, run roughly, or lose the power needed to drive the rammer's impact mechanism or the plate's exciter unit. A cracked, warped, or damaged cylinder head causes compression loss, overheating, and oil or coolant contamination in the combustion chamber, all of which accelerate broader engine damage if left unaddressed. Replacing a worn or failed cylinder head with a genuine OEM part like the Wacker Neuson 5000162136 restores the engine to its original operating condition.
