The Wacker Neuson Crankshaft is a genuine OEM crankshaft designed for DPU 2540H, DPU 2550H, DPU 2560H, DPU 2560H-TS, DPS2050H, and DPS2050Hw reversible plate compactors. As a factory-sourced component, this part meets the exact specifications of the original, ensuring a direct, trouble-free installation. Confirm your model number before ordering — this crankshaft spans the DPU 25-series and DPS2050H families, so matching your machine is straightforward. Keep your compactor running at full output by replacing a worn or damaged crankshaft with the correct OEM part.
Key Features
- OEM-Grade Dimensional Accuracy — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original tolerances, ensuring correct bearing journal sizing and proper crankpin geometry critical to smooth engine operation.
- Direct-Fit Replacement — Engineered to drop into the existing engine block without modification, aligning precisely with connecting rod, main bearings, and timing components as originally assembled.
- Broad DPU & DPS Series Coverage — A single part number covers the DPU 2540H, DPU 2550H, DPU 2560H, DPU 2560H-TS, DPS2050H, and DPS2050Hw, simplifying parts procurement across your fleet.
- Restores Full Engine Output — A worn crankshaft causes vibration, power loss, and accelerated bearing wear; replacing it with part 5000215788 restores proper compression and smooth power delivery to the compaction plate.
- Sourced Directly from Wacker Neuson — Genuine OEM origin means this crankshaft carries the same material grade and heat treatment as the part that left the factory, not an approximation of it.
The crankshaft is the central rotating component of the engine, converting the up-and-down motion of the piston into the rotational force that drives the machine. In a plate compactor, this rotational energy ultimately powers the eccentric mechanism that generates compaction force, making the crankshaft fundamental to the machine's entire performance output. When a crankshaft wears, develops cracks, or suffers journal damage, the result is excessive vibration, loss of power, rapid bearing failure, and — if left unaddressed — catastrophic engine damage.
