The Wacker Neuson 5100054500 is a genuine OEM Eccentric Weight designed for the APS and BPS series vibratory plate compactors, including the APS1030e, APS1030we, APS1135e, APS1135we, APS1340e, APS1340we, APS1550e, APS1550we, APS2050e, APS2050we, ARS90e, and BPS1550A. As a direct OEM component, the 5100054500 is manufactured to the same specification as the part originally installed at the factory, ensuring consistent compaction output and correct balance within the exciter assembly. Sourcing the correct eccentric weight by 5100054500 is critical — an incorrect mass or offset will directly affect vibration frequency and compaction force, compromising results on soil, asphalt, and paving stone applications.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Mass and Offset Spec: — Manufactured to the exact rotational mass and offset geometry of the original, preserving the designed vibration amplitude of your compactor's exciter unit.
- Drop-In Exciter Assembly Fit: — Engineered to seat directly into the exciter housing of compatible APS and BPS models with no reworking of mounting points or balancing required.
- Broad APS and BPS Series Coverage: — A single part number covers the full range of APS1030e through APS2050we and ARS90e battery-powered plates, plus the BPS1550A gasoline plate compactor.
- Compaction Force Integrity: — A worn or damaged eccentric weight reduces centrifugal force output, causing uneven compaction and forcing additional passes. Replacing with a correct OEM weight restores rated plate performance.
- Balanced Operation at Speed: — Correct weight geometry prevents vibration imbalance that can accelerate bearing wear throughout the exciter and gearbox, extending the service life of surrounding drivetrain components.
The eccentric weight is a precision-machined rotating mass housed inside the vibratory plate's exciter unit. As it spins, its off-center mass generates the centrifugal force that drives the plate's compaction vibration — the higher the rotational mass and offset, the greater the compaction amplitude delivered to the ground. When an eccentric weight wears, chips, or is replaced with an incorrect mass, the compactor loses calibrated vibration output, resulting in under-compacted material, increased pass counts, and undue stress on bearings and housing components. Replacing it with the correct OEM part restores the machine to its rated performance and protects the integrity of the exciter assembly.
