The Wacker Neuson Hexagon Nut is a genuine OEM hexagon nut designed for the DPU and DPS series reversible plate compactors, including models DPU 2540H, DPU 2550H, DPU 2560H, DPU 2560H-TS, DPU 3050H, DPU 3060H. As a factory-sourced component, it is manufactured to the same specification as the part it replaces, ensuring a correct, consistent fit within the assembly. Compatibility extends across a broad range of Wacker Neuson plate compactors in both the DPU and DPS families, making a practical stock item for dealers, service technicians, and fleet operators. When fastener hardware needs replacing, using the correct OEM part keeps the assembly torqued and secured exactly as intended.
Key Features
- Correct Thread Form and Hex Dimension — Manufactured to OEM specification, this hexagon nut matches the exact thread pitch and across-flats dimension required for proper engagement in the assembly.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson OEM Part — Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, part number 5100038999 carries the same material grade and dimensional tolerances as the original hardware it replaces.
- Broad DPU and DPS Series Fitment — Compatible with over 20 Wacker Neuson plate compactor models across the DPU 2500, DPU 3000, DPU 3700, DPU 5500, DPU 6500, and DPS 1850/2050 series.
- Secure Fastening Restored — A worn, stripped, or missing hexagon nut compromises clamping force across the fastened joint; replacing it with the correct OEM part restores the intended torque retention and structural integrity.
- Direct Hardware Replacement — Installs in place of the original nut with standard tooling — no special preparation or adaptation needed to seat and torque correctly.
A hexagon nut is a six-sided threaded fastener used to clamp and secure components together by threading onto a bolt or stud. In plate compactors like the Wacker Neuson DPU and DPS series, fastener hardware plays a critical role in keeping assemblies — such as exciter units, engine mounts, and baseplate components — firmly secured under the high-vibration conditions these machines operate in. When a nut becomes stripped, corroded, or lost, the joint loses clamping force, which can lead to loosening of critical components, increased wear, and potential mechanical failure during operation. Replacing it promptly with the correct OEM part maintains the integrity of the fastened assembly and keeps the compactor operating as designed.
