The Wacker Neuson 5000408437 is a genuine OEM Cylinder Head Gasket designed for BPS1550Gw-c and BPS2050Gw-c reversible vibratory plate compactors, as well as the MP12, MP15, MP15-CE, MP20, and MP70 engine series. As a factory-original component, this gasket is manufactured to the exact material and dimensional tolerances required by Wacker Neuson for a proper, leak-free seal between the cylinder head and engine block. Sourcing part number 5000408437 directly ensures you are installing the correct gasket for your machine — eliminating guesswork on material grade, thickness, or port configuration. This is the same part supplied on the production line, giving you full confidence in fit and sealing performance from the first startup.
Key Features
- OEM Sealing Material Grade — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's exact material specification, ensuring correct compression characteristics and thermal resistance for the engine's operating conditions.
- Drop-In Head Replacement — Port openings, bolt-hole pattern, and gasket profile match the original exactly, so the head seats correctly without trimming or shimming.
- Broad BPS and MP Series Fitment — Compatible with BPS1550Gw-c CE and CN, BPS2050Gw-c CE and CN, and multiple MP12, MP15, MP20, and MP70 machine configurations.
- Maintains Engine Compression Integrity — A correctly sealed cylinder head keeps combustion pressure where it belongs, sustaining consistent power output and fuel efficiency across compaction work.
- Fuel and Coolant Path Sealing — Seals oil and fuel galleries as well as the combustion chamber, preventing cross-contamination that can rapidly damage internal engine components.
The cylinder head gasket sits between the engine block and the cylinder head, forming a pressure-tight seal that keeps combustion gases, engine oil, and fuel channels completely separated. Without a sound gasket, combustion pressure escapes, engine power drops, and oil or fuel can migrate into the combustion chamber — leading to fouled plugs, oil consumption, or accelerated internal wear. A failed or degraded head gasket is one of the more consequential engine faults to leave unaddressed, so replacing part number 5000408437 with a genuine OEM component at the first sign of a leak or compression loss is the most direct way to restore the engine to full working condition.
