The Wacker Neuson 5100049554 is a genuine OEM Tension Spring designed for the BPS1030A, BPS1135A, and BPS1340A series single-direction vibratory plate compactors, as well as the VP1135A. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this part meets the original engineering specifications for these machines — ensuring it seats, hooks, and loads exactly as the factory-installed component did. Whether you're servicing a standard, water-ballast (w), or S-variant BPS model across US or EU configurations, part number 5100049554 is the correct replacement. Keeping the tension spring in good working order is essential to maintaining consistent performance from your plate compactor on soil, aggregate, and paving stone applications.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Spring Rate — Manufactured to the original load and extension specifications, so the spring delivers the correct tension for your compactor's operating system without fatigue-induced drift.
- Drop-In Replacement — Engineered to the same hook geometry and wire diameter as the original, so installation requires no re-engineering of mounting points or adjacent hardware.
- Broad BPS and VP Series Coverage — Fits BPS1030A, BPS1030Aw, BPS1135A, BPS1135Aw, BPS1340A, BPS1340Aw, BPS1340Aws (US and EU variants), and VP1135A US plate compactors.
- Consistent Compaction Performance — A correctly tensioned spring maintains proper component engagement, allowing the plate compactor to deliver steady vibratory force during soil and base compaction passes.
- Multi-Variant Compatibility — Covers standard, water-ballast, and S-variant BPS models in both US and EU configurations under a single part number, simplifying parts procurement for fleets with mixed models.
A tension spring holds mechanical components under a controlled pulling force, maintaining proper position, preload, or return action within the machine's operating system. In a vibratory plate compactor, tension springs are commonly used to keep linkages, throttle cables, or engine control components in their correct operating position during machine use. When a tension spring weakens, stretches beyond its design limit, or breaks, the component it controls may fail to return to its neutral position, resulting in erratic engine behavior, loss of throttle control, or improper component engagement — all of which affect compaction consistency and operator control. Replacing a worn or broken tension spring promptly restores the mechanical relationship between connected components and brings the machine back to normal operation.
