Wacker Neuson 5100055384 Exciter Housing

The Wacker Neuson Exciter Housing is a genuine OEM component designed for the DPU5247, DPU5260, DPU5275, DPU6260, and DPU6275 series reversible vibration plates, as well as BPU5260 and BPU6275 series forward plate compactors. As a direct Wacker Neuson OEM part, the is manufactured to the same tolerances and material specifications as the original unit fitted at the factory, ensuring a seamless drop-in replacement. Broad compatibility across the DPU and BPU plate lines makes this a practical stocking part for rental fleets, contractors, and service centers running multiple Wacker Neuson compaction machines.

Key Features

• Genuine OEM Shell Integrity — Cast and machined to Wacker Neuson's original dimensional tolerances, maintaining correct bearing seat geometry and eccentric shaft alignment inside the exciter assembly.
• Direct Bolt-On Replacement — Matches the original mounting pattern and port locations on the exciter assembly, so the housing seats and fastens exactly as the factory unit did.
• Wide Series Coverage — Fits DPU5247, DPU5260, DPU5275, DPU6260, and DPU6275 reversible plate models plus BPU5260 and BPU6275 series, covering a broad range of heavy-duty Wacker Neuson compaction equipment.
• Sustained Compaction Output — A structurally sound exciter housing keeps eccentric weights spinning at the correct amplitude and frequency; a cracked or worn housing allows vibration energy to scatter, reducing plate compaction force and surface coverage.
• Verified OEM Part Number — Ordering by Wacker Neuson part number 5100055384 confirms you receive the correct housing configuration — critical on a component where dimensional variation directly affects exciter balance and plate performance.

The exciter housing is the structural enclosure that surrounds and protects the rotating eccentric weight assembly at the core of a vibratory plate compactor. It contains the eccentric shaft, bearings, and weights, and is responsible for channeling the rotational energy of those weights into the controlled, downward compaction force that the plate delivers to the ground. When the housing is cracked, worn at the bearing bores, or otherwise damaged, vibration becomes uneven or misdirected — leading to inconsistent compaction, accelerated bearing wear, and potential failure of the exciter assembly as a whole. Replacing a compromised housing with a genuine OEM unit like the Wacker Neuson 5100055384 restores the exciter to its original operating geometry and protects the surrounding drivetrain components.
