The Wacker Neuson Camshaft 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 camshaft meets the exact specifications of the original part installed at the factory. It is confirmed to fit the DPU 100-70 and DPU 100-70Le vibroplates, making it a straight swap when engine valve timing or wear require replacement. Ordering by part number ensures you receive the correct component for your machine without guesswork.
Key Features
- Exact OEM Valve Timing Geometry — Manufactured to the original lobe profile and journal dimensions, preserving the precise intake and exhaust timing the engine was designed around.
- Direct Engine Drop-In — Machined to the same tolerances as the factory-fitted camshaft, so it seats and indexes correctly without additional fitting or modification.
- Confirmed Fitment for DPU 100-70 Series — Verified for the DPU 100-70 and DPU 100-70Le diesel reversible vibratory plate compactors under part number 5000208982.
- Sustains Full Engine Power Output — A correctly profiled camshaft keeps valve lift and duration consistent, maintaining the combustion efficiency the DPU 100-70 needs to deliver rated compaction force.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson Part — Supplied as an authentic OEM component, carrying the same material grade and heat treatment specification as the part it replaces.
The camshaft is a precision-machined shaft inside the engine that controls the opening and closing of the intake and exhaust valves in sync with the pistons. Its lobes push against the valve train at calculated intervals, regulating airflow and combustion timing across every engine cycle. When a camshaft wears or suffers lobe damage, valve timing drifts, leading to loss of power, rough running, increased fuel consumption, and in severe cases, engine failure — all of which directly impact the compaction output of the machine.
