The Wacker Neuson is a genuine OEM Cheese Head Screw designed for the DPU and DPS series reversible and single-direction vibratory plate compactors, as well as the RS800H single drum vibratory roller. As a factory-sourced fastener, it is manufactured to the exact dimensions, thread specification, and material grade required by Wacker Neuson for these machines. Confirmed fitment spans the DPU 2870, DPU 2950, DPU 2960, DPU 2970, DPS3050, DPS3060, and RS800H — giving you confidence you are ordering the right part the first time.
Key Features
- OEM-Spec Thread and Head Profile — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's exact thread pitch, shank diameter, and cylindrical head geometry, ensuring full torque capacity and correct seating in the mating bore.
- Drop-In Installation — Matches the original fastener configuration, so it installs directly into the existing threaded bore without re-tapping or modification.
- Broad Vibratory Compaction Fitment — Verified for the DPU 2870, DPU 2950, DPU 2960, DPU 2970, DPS3050, DPS3060, and RS800H, covering both reversible plate and single-direction plate compactor families.
- Structural Integrity Under Vibration — A properly torqued OEM-spec fastener maintains critical component clamping loads under the sustained high-frequency vibration these machines generate — a worn or incorrect screw can work loose and cause assembly failure.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson Part — Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, carrying the same part number (5001401006) used by authorized dealers and service centers.
A cheese head screw — named for its wide, cylindrical, flat-topped head — is a precision fastener used to clamp and secure components within the machine's assembly. In high-vibration equipment such as vibratory plate compactors and single drum rollers, fasteners are subjected to constant cyclic loading that can accelerate wear on threads and bearing surfaces. Using a correctly dimensioned replacement screw with the proper material grade maintains the clamping force the assembly requires; an undersized or incorrect fastener risks backing out, stripping the mating thread, or allowing joined components to shift under load.
