The Wacker Neuson 5100049550 Cylinder Head Complete is a genuine OEM component designed for the BPS1030A, BPS1135A, BPS1340A, and VP1135A series vibratory plate compactors. As a direct OEM replacement, this cylinder head assembly is manufactured to the exact tolerances required by the original engine specification, ensuring a correct, drop-in fit without guesswork. This part covers a broad range of BPS and VP plate compactor configurations, including standard, water-ballasted, US market, and EU market variants. If your compactor has lost compression, it is running rough, or has sustained engine damage, the 5100049550 is the correct factory replacement to restore full engine performance.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Compression Integrity — Machined to OEM combustion chamber geometry, ensuring correct compression ratio and combustion sealing across all covered BPS and VP variants.
- Complete Assembly — Supplied as a fully assembled cylinder head complete, streamlining engine rebuilds and reducing the number of individual components to source separately.
- Broad BPS and VP Fitment — Confirmed for BPS1030A, BPS1030Aw, BPS1135A, BPS1135Aw, BPS1340A, BPS1340Aw, BPS1340Aws, and VP1135A series plate compactors, including US and EU regional variants.
- Restores Full Engine Output — A correctly seated cylinder head maintains the compression necessary for consistent ignition and full centrifugal force output, keeping your plate compactor delivering rated compaction energy.
- Combustion Seal Reliability — Properly torqued OEM cylinder head sealing prevents combustion gas blow-by, which left unchecked leads to accelerated engine wear and loss of compaction force over time.
The cylinder head is the upper portion of the engine block that seals the combustion chamber, houses the valves, and supports the spark plug. It works in combination with the head gasket to contain the pressure generated during combustion, which drives the piston and ultimately powers the eccentric shaft that produces the plate's compaction force. When a cylinder head develops cracks, warping, or gasket failure, compression drops sharply — resulting in hard starting, rough running, or complete engine failure. Replacing it with the correct OEM assembly restores proper combustion sealing and returns the compactor to rated performance.
