The Wacker Neuson Flywheel is a genuine OEM component designed for the DPU4545H, DPU5545H, and DPU6555H series vibratory plate compactors. As a factory-sourced part, the is manufactured to the same standards as the original, ensuring a direct, correct-fit installation with no guesswork. Confirmed fitment spans a broad range of DPU models including the DPU4545Hech, DPU5545Heh, DPU6055H, and DPU6555Hs, among others. Choosing the genuine OEM flywheel protects the performance and longevity of your compactor and keeps the machine running the way it was built to run.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Rotational Integrity — Factory-manufactured to the exact mass balance and dimensional tolerances required for smooth, vibration-free engine operation on Wacker Neuson DPU compactors.
- Direct Drop-In Installation — Matches the original mounting bolt pattern and interface geometry, fitting straight onto the crankshaft without modification or adaptation.
- Broad DPU Series Coverage — Compatible with the DPU4545H, DPU5545H, DPU6055H, and DPU6555H model families, covering a wide range of machine configurations and serial number ranges.
- Consistent Engine Output — A correctly functioning flywheel maintains steady crankshaft momentum between power strokes, delivering the consistent energy transfer that drives effective plate compaction force.
- Verified Part Number — Sourced and supplied as Wacker Neuson part 5000217116, giving you confidence that the correct component is going back into your machine.
The flywheel is a heavy rotating disc mounted directly to the engine crankshaft. Its mass stores rotational energy between each power stroke, smoothing out engine output and keeping the crankshaft turning consistently — which is especially critical on single-cylinder engines like those found in vibratory plate compactors. A worn, cracked, or unbalanced flywheel causes rough running, excessive vibration, hard starting, and can place damaging stress on the crankshaft bearings. Replacing a failed flywheel with a genuine OEM part restores stable engine operation and protects the surrounding drivetrain components from the effects of imbalance.
