The Wacker Neuson is a genuine OEM Shockmount designed for DPU and BPU series reversible vibratory plate compactors. As a direct OEM replacement sourced from Wacker Neuson, this shockmount meets the exact material and dimensional specifications of the original component installed at the factory. It is confirmed to fit the DPU 2870, BPU 2950A, DPU 2950Y, DPU 2950, DPU 2960, and DPU 2970 — covering a broad range of 28–29 kN reversible plate compactor models. When you order part number, you are getting the same component your machine was built with.
Key Features
- OEM-Grade Vibration Isolation Material — Manufactured to the same compound hardness and load-bearing specification as the original, ensuring the shockmount absorbs and dampens compaction forces correctly without premature breakdown.
- Drop-In Replacement — Matches the original mounting geometry and bolt pattern of the DPU and BPU series, so installation aligns to the existing hardware without rework or shimming.
- Broad DPU/BPU Series Coverage — A single part number covers the DPU 2870, DPU 2950, DPU 2950Y, DPU 2960, DPU 2970, and BPU 2950A reversible vibratory plate compactors.
- Protects Structural Components — A correctly functioning shockmount isolates the engine and upper frame from the exciter's high-frequency vibration; a worn or failed mount transfers that load directly to the chassis, accelerating wear on surrounding hardware and welds.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson Part — Supplied as genuine OEM, carrying the part number 5002001685 and backed by Wacker Neuson's parts quality standards for commercial compaction equipment.
A shockmount — sometimes called a vibration isolator or anti-vibration mount — sits between the compaction plate assembly and the upper machine frame, absorbing the intense cyclical forces generated by the exciter mechanism during operation. By cushioning this energy transfer, the shockmount protects the engine, fuel system, and structural frame from fatigue damage caused by continuous high-frequency vibration. When a shockmount deteriorates or fails, operators typically notice increased whole-body vibration at the handle, unusual rattling, and accelerated wear on bolts, brackets, and adjacent components — all signs that the isolator is no longer doing its job and should be replaced promptly.
