The Wacker Neuson Leaf Spring is a genuine OEM component designed for the DPU6555, DPU5545, DPU4545, and RD7H series reversible vibratory plate compactors. As a direct factory replacement, this part meets the original design intent and fits without modification to the mounting points. It is compatible across a broad range of DPU6555, DPU5545, DPU4545, and RD7H model variants, making it the correct choice whether you are servicing a standard or special-configuration machine. Sourcing the genuine Wacker Neuson ensures you are installing a part built to the same tolerances as the original.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Spring Steel Construction — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original material and temper specifications, delivering the flex-and-return characteristics this application requires.
- Direct Mounting Compatibility — Bolt holes and profile match the original bracket geometry on DPU and RD7H series plates, allowing straightforward installation without reworking the mounting.
- Broad Model Coverage — Fits DPU6555, DPU5545, DPU4545, and RD7H series compactors across standard, heated, and combination-drive configurations.
- Sustained Vibration Dampening — A correctly tensioned leaf spring absorbs and isolates vibration between the exciter housing and the frame; a cracked or fatigued spring transmits excessive shock loads that accelerate wear on surrounding components.
- Verified OEM Part Number — Part number 5100051936 is cross-referenced directly to Wacker Neuson's parts catalog, confirming you receive the right component the first time.
A leaf spring in a vibratory plate compactor acts as a flexible connection between the exciter unit and the upper machine frame, absorbing and controlling the transmission of vibration energy during operation. By flexing under load and returning to its original shape, it protects the engine, fuel system, and operator controls from the constant high-frequency vibration produced by the exciter. When a leaf spring cracks, loses tension, or breaks, vibration is transferred directly to the frame and engine mounts, causing accelerated component wear, increased noise, and potentially unsafe operating conditions.
