The Wacker Neuson Push Rod (Valve Lifter) is a genuine OEM component designed for the DPU reversible vibratory plate, DPS single-direction vibratory plate, and RS800H single drum vibratory roller series. As a direct OEM part, the is manufactured to the same specifications as the original, ensuring correct geometry, material grade, and dimensional tolerancing for a drop-in installation. This Push Rod (Valve Lifter) fits across a broad range of Wacker Neuson compaction equipment, including the DPU 2870, DPU 2950, DPU 2960, DPU 2970, DPS3050, DPS3060, and the RS800H. Ordering the correct OEM part by part number is the surest way to restore proper valve train operation and protect engine longevity.
Key Features
- OEM-Grade Material Hardness — Manufactured to the same metallurgical specification as the original, maintaining the surface hardness needed to resist wear against the camshaft lobe and valve stem over extended service cycles.
- Direct Engine Drop-In — Sized to the exact bore and length of the original, so the 5004101730 seats correctly in the lifter bore without shimming, grinding, or fitment adjustment.
- Broad Compaction Equipment Fitment — Compatible with DPU 2870, DPU 2950, DPU 2960, DPU 2970, DPS3050, DPS3060, and RS800H — covering both reversible and single-direction vibratory plate compactors as well as the RS800H roller.
- Protects Valve Train Integrity — A correctly functioning Push Rod (Valve Lifter) transfers cam lift precisely to the valve, maintaining proper engine compression and fuel efficiency. A worn or collapsed lifter causes erratic valve timing, rough running, and accelerated wear on adjacent components.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson OEM Part — Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, part number 5004101730 carries the full backing of the OEM parts program, so you know the part leaving the warehouse matches the one that left the factory.
The push rod, also known as a valve lifter, sits between the camshaft and the valve stem (or rocker arm) inside the engine's valve train. Its job is to translate the rotational motion of the camshaft into the linear motion needed to open and close the engine's intake and exhaust valves at precisely the right moment. When a push rod bends, flattens on its contact face, or wears out of tolerance, valve timing is disrupted — leading to loss of compression, rough idling, increased fuel consumption, and potential damage to the cylinder head. Replacing a worn Push Rod (Valve Lifter) with the correct OEM part restores the engine's designed valve timing and keeps the compactor or roller running at full compaction output.
