The Wacker Neuson Oval Head Screw is a genuine OEM fastener designed for BPU, DPU, WP, and APU series reversible and battery-powered vibratory plate compactors. As a factory-sourced component, part is manufactured to the exact dimensional and material specifications required for correct assembly and secure retention in these machines. Compatible models include the BPU 5045A, DPU 6555 series, DPU 6055 series, WP1540A, WP1550A, and multiple APU electric plate compactor variants. Ordering by part number ensures you receive the correct fastener the first time, avoiding fitment issues caused by substituting generic hardware.
Key Features
- OEM Thread and Head Geometry — Manufactured to exact oval head profile and thread specifications, ensuring flush seating and correct torque retention in the compactor housing.
- Drop-In Replacement — Matches the original mounting point dimensions on BPU, DPU, WP, and APU series plates; installs directly using standard tooling.
- Wide Model Coverage — Confirmed fitment across the BPU 5045A, DPU 6055 and DPU 6555 families, WP1540A, WP1550A, and a broad range of APU battery-powered vibratory plates including APU2840e, APU2850e, APU2860e, APU3050e, APU3340e, APU3350e, and APU3360e models.
- Correct Material Grade — OEM sourcing ensures the screw meets the hardness and corrosion-resistance requirements for outdoor compaction equipment exposed to vibration, moisture, and debris.
- Vibration-Resistant Retention — A properly specified oval head screw maintains clamping force under the continuous high-frequency vibration loads generated by vibratory plate compactors, preventing loosening and structural play over time.
An oval head screw sits flush or slightly countersunk against a mating surface, using its curved underside to distribute clamping load evenly as it seats. In vibratory plate compactors, fasteners like the 5100013871 are subjected to constant cyclic vibration forces that can cause improperly sized or incorrect-grade hardware to back out or fatigue prematurely. Using the correct OEM screw maintains the structural integrity of the assembled component, prevents unwanted movement between mated parts, and keeps the machine performing as intended throughout its service life.
