The Wacker Neuson Gear XPU is a genuine OEM component designed for the DPU5247, DPU5260, DPU5275, DPU6260, DPU6275, and BPU5260 and BPU6275 series reversible vibration plates. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this part meets the same standards as the gear installed at the factory — no guesswork on fit or function. Compatibility spans a wide range of DPU and BPU plate configurations, including He, Heh, Hehcb+, Hehcpb+, and H variants, making one of the most broadly applicable drive components in the Wacker Neuson plate compactor line.
Key Features
- OEM Gear Tooth Integrity — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original tooth profile and hardness spec, ensuring proper mesh and load transfer within the exciter drive assembly.
- Drop-In Drive Replacement — Engineered to the same dimensional tolerances as the original, so the gear seats and aligns correctly in the XPU exciter unit without reworking the housing or shaft.
- Broad DPU and BPU Compatibility — Fits DPU5260, DPU5275, DPU6260, DPU6275, and BPU5260 and BPU6275 series plates across He, Heh, Hehcb+, Hehcpb+, and H configurations.
- Sustained Compaction Output — A correctly functioning XPU gear maintains consistent eccentric rotation, which directly controls the plate's compaction force and frequency. A worn or stripped gear causes uneven vibration and reduced compaction performance.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson Part — Supplied as a genuine OEM component, part number 5100047168, backed by Wacker Neuson's parts program for authorized replacements.
The Gear XPU is a core element of the exciter unit that drives the eccentric shaft inside a reversible vibratory plate compactor. As the gear transfers rotational force from the engine to the eccentric weights, it generates the oscillating motion that propels the plate forward or in reverse and delivers compaction energy into the ground. When this gear wears, chips, or loses tooth contact, the exciter loses efficiency — resulting in weaker compaction force, abnormal vibration patterns, and accelerated wear on surrounding drive components. Replacing a damaged XPU gear promptly with a genuine part restores the machine's rated compaction output and protects the rest of the exciter assembly.
