The Wacker Neuson Piston Complete is a genuine OEM component designed for the DPU 100-70 and DPU 100-70Le reversible vibratory plate compactors. As a factory-original part, the is manufactured to the exact specifications required to restore proper engine compression and power delivery in these heavy-duty diesel plate compactors. This piston assembly is the correct replacement for both the standard DPU 100-70 and the DPU 100-70Le variants, ensuring a direct, model-verified fit. When your compactor shows signs of lost power, excessive oil consumption, or poor starting, replacing the piston complete assembly is a critical step in returning the machine to full working condition.
Key Features
- Exact OEM Dimensions — Manufactured to factory bore diameter and compression height tolerances, ensuring correct cylinder sealing and compression ratio restoration in the DPU 100-70 engine.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson Part — Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this is not an approximation — it is the same piston assembly used in original production, carrying part number 5000208894.
- Confirmed Fitment — Verified for the DPU 100-70 and DPU 100-70Le reversible vibratory plate compactors, covering both standard and Le series configurations.
- Full Compression Restoration — A correctly fitted piston complete assembly restores engine power output and fuel efficiency, keeping the compactor delivering the centrifugal force needed for effective soil and aggregate compaction.
- Complete Assembly — Supplied as a complete piston unit, including all integrated components, simplifying the rebuild process and reducing the chance of mismatched parts during engine service.
The piston is the moving heart of the engine's combustion cycle — it travels up and down within the cylinder bore to compress the air-fuel mixture, withstand combustion pressure, and transfer that energy to the crankshaft via the connecting rod. In a diesel-powered reversible plate compactor like the DPU 100-70, a healthy piston is essential for generating the compression ratios required to fire without a spark plug. When a piston wears, cracks, or loses its ring seal, the engine suffers from reduced compression, hard starting, increased oil burn, and a noticeable drop in compaction force — all of which directly impact productivity on the job.
