The Wacker Neuson Cylinder With Piston is a genuine OEM assembly designed for the DPS1850H Basic, DPS1850H Asphalt, DPS1850H Vario, DPU 2540H, DPU 2550H, DPU 2560H, and DPU 2560H-TS plate compactors. As a factory-sourced component, this assembly is manufactured to the exact dimensional and material tolerances Wacker Neuson specifies for these machines, ensuring a direct, stock replacement install with no adaptation needed. The covers a broad range of DPS and DPU series models, making it a practical choice for fleet operators and service shops supporting multiple units. When your compactor is down, installing the correct OEM cylinder and piston assembly gets it back performing to original specification as quickly as possible.
Key Features
- OEM Bore and Wall Tolerances — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's exact cylinder bore dimensions and piston clearance specs, ensuring proper compression and combustion efficiency from the first start.
- Stock Replacement Fit — Matches the original mounting configuration and port alignment on DPS and DPU series engines, allowing direct swap without machining or re-fitting.
- Broad DPS and DPU Series Coverage — A single part number covers DPS1850H Basic, Asphalt, and Vario variants alongside DPU 2540H, DPU 2550H, DPU 2560H, and DPU 2560H-TS models.
- Full Compaction Output Restored — A worn or scored cylinder causes loss of compression, reducing centrifugal force output and compaction depth; a fresh assembly restores the machine to rated performance.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson Part — Sourced directly through authorized Wacker Neuson supply channels, carrying the part number 5000209961 for straightforward verification against your machine's parts manual.
The cylinder and piston assembly forms the core of the compactor's engine, converting fuel combustion into the mechanical energy that drives the eccentric weight and generates compaction force. The cylinder bore provides the sealed chamber in which combustion pressure acts on the piston, and the piston transmits that force through the connecting rod to the crankshaft. When the cylinder wall wears, scores, or the piston loses ring seal, compression drops, the engine loses power, and the plate compactor can no longer achieve the impact force needed to properly compact soil or asphalt layers.
