The Wacker Neuson Centrifugal Weight is a genuine OEM component designed for the DPU 2540H, DPU 2550H, DPU 2560H, DPU 2560H-TS, BPU 2540A, and BPU 2540A US vibratory plate compactors. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this part matches the original in material grade, balance, and dimensional tolerancing — so it drops in exactly as the factory intended. Whether you are restoring compaction performance or completing a scheduled service, part number is the correct OEM choice for these machines. Confirm your model number before ordering to ensure a direct-fit replacement.
Key Features
- OEM-Matched Mass and Balance — Manufactured to the same rotational balance specifications as the original, ensuring consistent centrifugal force output and smooth exciter operation.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Engineered to the same bore diameter and mounting interface as the factory-installed weight, fitting directly onto the exciter shaft without modification.
- Broad DPU and BPU Series Compatibility — Fits DPU 2540H, DPU 2550H, DPU 2560H, DPU 2560H-TS, BPU 2540A, and BPU 2540A US vibratory plate compactors.
- Restored Compaction Force — A worn or damaged centrifugal weight reduces the plate's vibration amplitude, leading to poor compaction results. Replacing it with a correctly weighted OEM part restores full compaction output.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson Part — Supplied as an authorized OEM component under part number 5100031124, backed by Wacker Neuson's manufacturing standards for exciter system components.
The centrifugal weight is a core component of a vibratory plate compactor's exciter unit. As the exciter shaft rotates, the centrifugal weight generates the eccentric force that drives the plate's vibration — it is this vibration that compacts soil, gravel, and asphalt beneath the machine. If the centrifugal weight is worn, cracked, or out of balance, the plate loses vibration intensity, producing uneven or insufficient compaction and placing additional stress on the exciter bearings and housing.
