The Wacker Neuson Upper Mass DPU52 is a genuine OEM component designed for the DPU5260, DPU5275, and DPU5247 series vibration plates. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this part meets the exact specifications of the original component installed at the factory. Compatible across a broad range of DPU52-series configurations including the DPU5260Heh, DPU5260He, DPU5275Heh, DPU5247Heh, and related variants, part number is the correct replacement when restoring compaction performance on these machines. Choosing a genuine OEM part ensures the assembly behaves exactly as the original design intended, maintaining the compaction output and operational balance the machine was built to deliver.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Mass Assembly — Manufactured by Wacker Neuson to the same weight and dimensional tolerances as the original, ensuring the compaction force and frequency characteristics of the plate are preserved.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Engineered to mount using the existing hardware and interface points on the DPU52 exciter housing, requiring no rework to surrounding components during installation.
- Broad DPU52-Series Compatibility — Confirmed fitment across DPU5260, DPU5275, and DPU5247 model families, covering standard, Heh, He, Hp, and LOXAM-spec variants.
- Restores Compaction Balance — A worn or damaged upper mass disrupts the exciter's oscillation cycle, leading to uneven compaction and increased vibration transmitted to the operator; replacing it with 5100056018 brings the machine back into spec.
- Operator Vibration Compliance — Correct upper mass weight is directly tied to hand-arm vibration output on reversible plates; using the proper OEM part helps maintain compliance with operator exposure limits under applicable safety standards.
The upper mass is a core component of the exciter assembly inside a reversible vibratory plate compactor. It works together with the lower mass and eccentric weights to generate the oscillating force that drives the plate's forward and reverse travel while compacting the ground beneath it. When the upper mass is cracked, worn, or incorrectly weighted, the balance of the exciter is thrown off — resulting in loss of compaction force, erratic plate movement, and elevated vibration levels that can exceed safe operating thresholds.
