The Wacker Neuson Centrifugal Clutch is a genuine OEM centrifugal clutch designed for Wacker Neuson VP and WP series single-direction vibratory plates. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this part carries the same specifications as the component originally installed at the factory, ensuring a correct, trouble-free installation. It is compatible across a broad range of models including the VP1135A, VP1340A, VP1550A, VP2050A, WP1540A, WP1550A, VP1030A, and their respective Aw variants, as well as the DPS2050H and DPS2050Hw. When your vibratory plate clutch wears or fails, replacing it with the genuine Wacker Neuson restores full power transfer from the engine to the exciter mechanism so your machine gets back to compacting efficiently.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Engagement Specs — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original engagement RPM and torque transfer specifications, so the clutch engages and releases exactly as designed for smooth, consistent plate operation.
- Drop-In Installation — Matches the original mounting configuration and shaft interface on compatible VP and WP series plates, allowing straightforward replacement without machining or adaptation.
- Broad Model Coverage — Fits VP1030, VP1135, VP1340, VP1550, and VP2050 series plates along with WP1540 and WP1550 models, including US, CN, and Loxam variants, and the DPS2050H/Hw.
- Sustained Power Transfer — A fully functional centrifugal clutch delivers consistent drive force to the exciter unit; a worn clutch causes slipping, reduced compaction force, and accelerated wear on surrounding drivetrain components.
- Long-Term Durability — Built to withstand the continuous heat cycles and centrifugal loading demands of daily compaction work, maintaining consistent engagement characteristics over an extended service life.
A centrifugal clutch connects the engine to the plate's exciter mechanism automatically based on engine speed — at idle, the clutch disengages so the plate sits still; as the throttle opens and RPM rises, weighted flyweights swing outward and lock the clutch drum, transmitting rotational force to the exciter and generating the compaction vibration the plate relies on. When the clutch wears, the flyweights lose grip, causing the plate to vibrate inconsistently or not at all, which directly reduces compaction performance and puts additional strain on the engine. Replacing a failing centrifugal clutch promptly with the correct OEM part, like the Wacker Neuson 5100016313, prevents further drivetrain damage and restores the machine to its rated compaction output.
