The Wacker Neuson Eccentric Weight is a genuine OEM component designed for BPU 4045A and DPU 4045Ye series reversible vibratory plate compactors. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this part meets the exact specifications required for proper vibration output and compaction performance across the full range of compatible machines. Verified fitment covers the BPU 4045A, DPU 4045Ye, DPU 4045Yeh, DPU 4045Yehzf, DPU 40Yeh, and DPU 45Yeh models in both US and EU configurations.
Key Features
- Calibrated Mass for Correct Vibration Output — Manufactured to the precise weight and balance specification required to generate the correct centrifugal force in BPU and DPU vibratory plate compactors.
- Direct OEM Replacement — This genuine Wacker Neuson part installs directly onto the exciter shaft without any modification, maintaining the original dynamic balance of the exciter assembly.
- Broad Series Compatibility — Fits BPU 4045A and the full DPU 4045Ye / DPU 4045Yeh / DPU 4045Yehzf / DPU 40Yeh / DPU 45Yeh family in both US and EU variants.
- Restores Full Compaction Force — A worn or damaged eccentric weight reduces centrifugal force, leading to uneven compaction and poor surface finish; replacing it brings the plate back to rated compaction performance.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson Quality — As a genuine OEM part, 5000220168 is produced to the same tolerances and material grade as the original, ensuring consistent rotation balance and long service life in demanding compaction applications.
The eccentric weight is the core component inside a vibratory plate compactor's exciter housing. As it rotates at high speed on the exciter shaft, its offset mass generates centrifugal force, which is what drives the plate's rapid up-and-down vibration into the ground. This vibration is what consolidates soil, aggregate, or asphalt beneath the baseplate. When an eccentric weight is cracked, worn, or missing, the compactor loses centrifugal force, vibration amplitude drops, and the machine can no longer achieve the required compaction depth or density — making prompt replacement essential to keeping the plate compactor productive on the job.
