The Wacker Neuson Compression Spring is a genuine OEM component designed for the DPU 100-70, DPU 100-70Le, and DPU 100-70Les reversible vibratory plate compactors. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this part meets the exact specifications of the original component installed at the factory. It is a direct-fit replacement for all three DPU 100-70 series variants, ensuring correct installation without modification. If you are servicing a DPU 100-70 or DPU 100-70Le and need a spring that seats and tensions exactly like the original, part number is the correct choice.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Spring Rate: — Manufactured to the exact coil tension and load rating specified for the DPU 100-70 series, so the spring performs at the correct compression force from day one.
- Drop-In Replacement: — Matches the original mounting dimensions and seating geometry, fitting directly into the existing spring pocket with no rework required.
- Broad DPU 100-70 Series Coverage: — Confirmed fitment across the DPU 100-70, DPU 100-70Le, and DPU 100-70Les reversible vibratory plate compactors.
- Consistent Compaction Force: — A correctly tensioned spring maintains proper mechanical engagement within the compactor's drive system, supporting steady, predictable plate output on soil and aggregate.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson Part: — Supplied as an authentic OEM component, backed by Wacker Neuson's parts program and traceable to the original equipment specification.
A compression spring in a reversible vibratory plate compactor is responsible for maintaining tension or return force within a mechanical assembly — commonly found in clutch, exciter, or drive linkage systems. When the spring is correctly tensioned, it ensures the relevant mechanism engages and releases predictably, keeping compaction output consistent. A worn, fatigued, or broken spring can cause erratic engagement, loss of drive response, or excessive vibration in unintended areas of the machine — all of which affect compaction quality and can accelerate wear on surrounding components.
