The Wacker Neuson Cylinder Head Cover is a genuine OEM component designed for a wide range of Wacker Neuson vibratory plates and compactors, including the BPU2540A, VP1550A, VP2050A, VP1340A, VP1135A, WP1550A, BPS1030A, BPS1135A, BPS1340A, BPS1550A, BPS2050A, and WPU1550A series machines. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this part meets the same specifications as the original component installed at the factory. With fitment confirmed across dozens of model variants — including US, EU, and CN regional configurations — buyers can order with confidence knowing is the correct part for their machine. It replaces worn or damaged covers quickly and cleanly, keeping compaction equipment back on the ground where it belongs.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Sealing Integrity — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's exact material and dimensional tolerances, ensuring the cover seats flush against the cylinder head with no gaps or distortion that could compromise the seal.
- Direct-Fit Replacement — Matches the original mounting bolt pattern and profile, so installation follows the same procedure as the factory part with no rework or trimming needed.
- Broad Model Coverage — Fits BPU, VP, WP, BPS, and WPU series vibratory plates across US, EU, and CN variants, covering a large portion of Wacker Neuson's single-direction and reversible plate compactor lineup.
- Protects Critical Engine Components — A sound cylinder head cover shields the valve train and gasket surfaces from dust, debris, and moisture — elements that are ever-present on compaction worksites and accelerate engine wear when left unguarded.
- Restores Proper Oil Containment — A cracked or warped cover allows oil seepage that contaminates surrounding components and leads to progressive engine damage; replacing it promptly with part 5100049540 stops leaks at the source.
The cylinder head cover is a protective housing that encloses the top of the engine's cylinder head, sealing the valve train and rocker arm assembly from the outside environment. It retains engine oil within the head and prevents contaminants such as dirt, water, and debris from entering the valve mechanism. When the cover cracks, warps, or its mating gasket surface deteriorates, oil leaks develop and engine internals become exposed to contamination — both of which can cause accelerated wear and eventual engine failure if left unaddressed.
