The Wacker Neuson Fitting Key is a genuine OEM component designed for the DPU 100-70 and DPU 100-70Le reversible vibratory plate compactors. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this part meets the exact specifications required for proper assembly and alignment within these heavy-duty diesel-powered compaction machines. The fits both the standard DPU 100-70 and the DPU 100-70Le variants, making it a straightforward choice when servicing either model.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Accuracy — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's exact tolerances, ensuring the fitting key seats and locks correctly without slop or misalignment.
- Direct Assembly Fit — Designed to drop into the existing keyway without rework, maintaining the correct shaft-to-component relationship during reassembly.
- Confirmed Compactor Compatibility — Verified fitment for the DPU 100-70 and DPU 100-70Le reversible vibratory plate compactors.
- Torque and Drive Integrity — A correctly fitted key locks rotating components in phase, transmitting drive force cleanly; a worn or missing key causes slippage, vibration imbalance, and accelerated wear on mating parts.
- Correct Part, First Time — Part number 5000208886 is the OEM-designated fitting key for these models, eliminating guesswork when ordering service parts.
A fitting key is a small but critical fastening component that sits in a machined keyway between a shaft and a mating hub, pulley, or gear. Its job is to lock the two parts together rotationally so that torque is transferred evenly without slippage. On a reversible vibratory plate compactor like the DPU 100-70, where the exciter mechanism must respond precisely to directional changes under load, a damaged or missing fitting key can cause the driven component to slip out of time — leading to erratic plate movement, loss of compaction force, and rapid wear on the shaft and bore. Replacing a worn key with the correct OEM part restores the positive drive connection and protects the surrounding components from secondary damage.
