The Wacker Neuson Camshaft Complete is a genuine OEM component designed for the DPU 2870, DPU 2950, DPU 2960, DPU 2970, DPS3050, DPS3060 reversible and single-direction vibratory plates, as well as the RS800H single drum vibratory roller. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this part meets the exact engineering tolerances specified for the original engine assembly. Using a verified OEM camshaft ensures the valve timing and lift profiles remain consistent with the machine's design parameters, protecting engine performance across demanding compaction cycles. If you're servicing one of the listed DPU or DPS models, part number is the direct replacement to specify.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Valve Timing Accuracy — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's exact lobe profile and journal tolerances, ensuring intake and exhaust timing stays true to the engine's original design.
- Drop-In Engine Replacement — Machined to match original bearing journals and gear interfaces, so the camshaft seats and aligns correctly during reassembly without rework.
- Broad DPU and DPS Fitment — Confirmed for DPU 2870, DPU 2950, DPU 2960, DPU 2970, DPS3050, and DPS3060 vibratory plates, plus the RS800H single drum roller.
- Sustained Power Through Compaction Loads — A correctly profiled camshaft maintains full engine breathing efficiency, delivering consistent power output under the high-cycle demands of plate compaction work.
- Protects Downstream Engine Components — A worn or incorrectly profiled camshaft causes misfiring, loss of compression, and accelerated valve train wear; replacing with OEM spec eliminates those failure modes.
The camshaft is a precision engine component responsible for controlling the opening and closing of the intake and exhaust valves in timed sequence with the piston strokes. It translates rotational motion from the crankshaft into the precise lift and duration needed for the engine to breathe correctly and produce rated power. When a camshaft wears or its lobes become damaged, the engine will typically run rough, lose power, consume more fuel, or fail to start — symptoms that directly impair the compaction output and cycle efficiency of vibratory plates and rollers. Replacing a worn camshaft with a genuine OEM unit restores the engine's original valve events and brings performance back to specification.
