The Wacker Neuson Cylinder With Piston is a genuine OEM assembly designed for the DPU 2540H, DPU 2550H, DPU 2560H, DPU 2560H-TS, DPS1850H, and DPS3060Hv series plate compactors. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this assembly carries the exact tolerances and material specifications required to restore your machine to original operating condition. It is the correct replacement for all listed DPU and DPS series models, covering asphalt, basic, and vario configurations of the DPS1850H. When the cylinder or piston wears, fitting a genuine OEM assembly like the ensures the engine returns to proper compression and power output from the first start.
Key Features
- OEM Compression Integrity — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original bore and piston clearance specifications, ensuring correct compression ratios are maintained after installation.
- Direct-Fit Assembly — Supplied as a matched cylinder and piston unit that installs into the engine block using the same mounting points and hardware as the original, with no reworking of the engine casing required.
- Broad DPU and DPS Series Coverage — Confirmed fitment across the DPU 2540H, DPU 2550H, DPU 2560H, DPU 2560H-TS, DPS1850H (Asphalt, Basic, and Vario), and DPS3060Hv plate compactors.
- Full Power Restoration — A worn cylinder or scored piston causes loss of compression, hard starting, and reduced compaction force. This matched assembly brings engine output back to the levels these machines are rated for.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson OEM Part — Part number 5000215772 is an authorized Wacker Neuson component, not a substitute — giving you confidence in fit, function, and longevity on every job.
The cylinder and piston form the core of the engine's combustion chamber. The piston moves up and down inside the cylinder bore, compressing the air-fuel mixture and transferring the force of combustion into the crankshaft that drives the compactor's exciter mechanism. When the cylinder bore wears or the piston develops scoring, ring land damage, or excessive clearance, compression drops — leading to hard starting, rough running, overheating, and ultimately a machine that cannot deliver the compaction output it was built for. Replacing both components together as a matched assembly, as supplied here, ensures the bore-to-piston clearance is correct from the outset and prevents premature wear that can occur when only one half of the pair is renewed.
