The Wacker Neuson Water Tank Mount Bracket is a genuine OEM component designed for VPG165V, VPG165A, and VPG170A series vibratory plates. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this bracket delivers the exact fit and structural integrity the original design demands. It is the correct replacement for machines requiring a 587mm/18in vibratory plate configuration, covering all three VPG series variants listed above.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction: — Fabricated to Wacker Neuson's original specifications, ensuring the correct load-bearing geometry and mounting dimensions for secure water tank retention.
- Drop-In Replacement: — Mounts using the existing hardware and attachment points on the VPG frame, keeping installation straightforward and accurate.
- Broad VPG Series Coverage: — Fits VPG165V, VPG165A, and VPG170A vibratory plates, making this a single solution across multiple machines in the 587mm/18in plate range.
- Stable Water Tank Support: — A properly fitted mount bracket holds the water tank firmly in position during compaction operation, preventing movement that can stress water lines or cause leaks mid-job.
- Verified Part Number: — Part 5003012796 is the exact Wacker Neuson reference for this bracket, so you can order with confidence knowing it matches your machine's bill of materials.
The Water Tank Mount Bracket is the structural fitting that secures the water tank to the vibratory plate frame. On plate compactors equipped with a water sprinkling system, the tank delivers a steady supply of water to the plate surface to prevent asphalt from sticking during compaction passes. If this bracket is cracked, bent, or missing, the tank can shift or detach under vibration, interrupting water flow and potentially damaging the tank or connected hoses. Keeping this bracket in sound condition is essential for consistent, clean compaction performance on asphalt surfaces.
