The Wacker Neuson Cylinder Head Gasket is a genuine OEM component designed for the DPU4545, DPU5545, DPU6055, and DPU6555 series reversible vibratory plate compactors. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this gasket matches the original specification fitted at the factory, ensuring a correct seal between the cylinder head and engine block. It is compatible across a wide range of DPU model variants including He, Heh, Hec, Hech, Heap, Hesh, and Hecsh configurations, covering both standard and US-market versions. When it comes to engine sealing components, genuine OEM is the benchmark — delivers the material grade and dimensional accuracy the engine demands.
Key Features
- OEM Sealing Integrity — Manufactured to the exact material grade and compression specification required for the DPU series diesel engine, ensuring consistent combustion chamber pressure and coolant/oil separation.
- Direct Head-to-Block Fitment — Designed to align precisely with the cylinder head bolt pattern and bore dimensions of compatible DPU engines, dropping in without modification during a standard head removal and reinstall.
- Broad DPU Series Coverage — Fits DPU4545, DPU5545, DPU6055, and DPU6555 models across numerous variants, including He, Heh, Hec, Hech, Heap, Hesh, Hecsh, and US-market configurations.
- Engine Performance Protection — A failed or blown head gasket allows combustion gases to escape or coolant to enter the oil circuit, causing power loss or engine damage. Replacing with 5000207546 restores full compression and keeps the engine running at peak output.
- Combustion Safety Compliance — Maintaining a sound head gasket seal is critical to safe engine operation; a compromised gasket can cause overheating, oil contamination, and uncontrolled combustion pressure — risks this genuine OEM part is engineered to prevent.
The cylinder head gasket forms the critical seal between the engine's cylinder head and the top of the engine block. It must withstand extreme combustion pressures, high temperatures, and the cyclical stress of constant engine firing — all while preventing combustion gases, coolant, and engine oil from mixing or escaping. On diesel-powered reversible plate compactors like the DPU series, where the engine works hard under sustained compaction loads, a degraded or blown head gasket will quickly manifest as lost compression, white or blue exhaust smoke, overheating, or oil contamination. Replacing a worn gasket with the correct OEM part — part number 5000207546 — restores the engine's sealed combustion environment and prevents further damage to the head, block, or internal engine components.
