The Wacker Neuson Camshaft is a genuine OEM camshaft designed for a wide range of Wacker Neuson vibratory plates, power screeds, and internal vibrators, including the WP1540A, WP1550A, WP1540AW, WP1550AW, BPU2540A, VP1340, VP1550, VP2050 series, GV2500A generators, and PT2A pumps. As a direct OEM replacement, this camshaft is manufactured to the same tolerances and specifications as the original part it replaces, ensuring proper valve timing and engine function across all compatible machines. Part number is the authorized Wacker Neuson component for this application — confirm your model number before ordering to ensure a correct fit.
Key Features
- OEM Valve Timing Accuracy — Manufactured to the same lobe profile and dimensional tolerances as the original, preserving precise intake and exhaust timing for consistent engine output.
- Drop-In Engine Replacement — Machined to match original journal diameters and gear interfaces, fitting directly into the engine block without modification to bearings or timing components.
- Broad Wacker Neuson Compatibility — Fits WP1540A, WP1550A, WP1540AW, WP1550AW, BPU2540A, VP1340, VP1550, VP2050 series vibratory plates, GV2500A generators, PT2A pumps, HP/HPG screed power units, and D3.5A modular internal vibrators.
- Protects Engine Longevity — A worn or damaged camshaft causes misfires, loss of compression, and irregular valve operation; replacing it with a correctly profiled OEM part restores full power and prevents accelerated wear on lifters and valves.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson Part — Sourced directly through the authorized Wacker Neuson parts network, carrying the part number 5100050572 for straightforward verification against your machine's parts manual.
The camshaft is a core internal engine component that controls the opening and closing of the intake and exhaust valves by rotating lobes that push against the valve train in time with the crankshaft. In small gasoline engines used across Wacker Neuson compaction and concrete equipment, a correctly functioning camshaft is essential for maintaining the compression cycle that drives reliable starting and steady power under load. When a camshaft wears or its lobes become pitted or rounded, the engine loses compression, runs roughly, or fails to start — making timely replacement critical to keeping the machine operational.
