The Wacker Neuson Seal Ring is a genuine OEM component designed for the DPU4545, DPU5545, DPU6555, and DPU6055 series reversible vibratory plate compactors. As a direct factory part, it meets the same material and dimensional standards as the original seal installed at production, ensuring a consistent, leak-free fit within the hydraulic or drive system it serves. This seal ring is compatible across an extensive range of DPU variants — including He, Heh, Hec, Hech, Heap, Hesh, Hecsh, and US-spec configurations — making it a versatile stock item for dealers and service technicians running mixed fleets. Keep part number on hand to handle seal replacements quickly and keep your DPU compactors running at full compaction output.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Material Integrity — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original seal compound specification, delivering the correct compression ratio and chemical resistance for the fluids present in DPU-series drive systems.
- Drop-In Replacement — Matches the exact profile and dimensions of the factory-installed seal, seating correctly without rework or modification to mating surfaces.
- Broad DPU Series Coverage — A single part number covers DPU4545, DPU5545, DPU6555, and DPU6055 variants across He, Heh, Hec, Hech, Heap, Hesh, Hecsh, and US-spec configurations.
- Leak Prevention — A sound seal ring maintains internal pressure and fluid containment; a degraded or cracked seal leads to fluid loss, loss of exciter or hydraulic function, and potential damage to surrounding components.
- Fuel and Fluid System Compliance — Correct sealing is critical to safe operation of the hydraulic exciter circuit; using a correctly rated OEM seal reduces the risk of uncontrolled fluid release during compaction operations.
A seal ring forms a pressure-tight barrier between two mating components — typically within a hydraulic circuit, exciter housing, or drive assembly — preventing fluid from escaping past a joint or interface. In a reversible vibratory plate compactor like the DPU series, the hydraulic exciter system drives the compaction force and directional control; any breach in the sealing circuit causes fluid loss that directly reduces compaction energy and can lead to exciter failure. When a seal ring degrades — through heat cycling, age, or chemical exposure — it loses its ability to hold pressure, resulting in external leaks, reduced plate performance, and the risk of further internal damage if left unaddressed.
