The Wacker Neuson Cylinder Head Gasket 0,4 is a genuine OEM component designed for the DPU6555Heh and DPU6555Hech vibration plate series. As a direct factory replacement, this gasket ensures the exact material composition and thickness specification required to maintain a proper combustion seal in these machines. Sourcing the genuine OEM part means you get the same component installed at the factory — no guesswork on fitment or material compatibility. Confirm your model number before ordering to ensure correct application.
Key Features
- OEM-Grade Combustion Sealing — Manufactured to the exact thickness and material spec (0,4) required for a pressure-tight head seal on Wacker Neuson engines, preventing compression loss or coolant intrusion.
- Drop-In Head Replacement — Engineered to seat directly between the cylinder head and engine block on applicable DPU6555 series plates, aligning with factory bolt patterns and surface tolerances.
- Confirmed Fitment for DPU6555 Series — Verified for the DPU6555Heh US, DPU6555Hech US, and DPU6555Hehapn vibration plate models.
- Protects Engine Integrity — A correctly functioning head gasket maintains compression and keeps combustion gases, oil, and coolant in their proper channels — a failed gasket can lead to rapid engine damage and costly repairs.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson OEM Part — Supplied directly through the Wacker Neuson parts network under part number 5100062283, ensuring authenticity and traceability for your service records.
A cylinder head gasket sits between the engine block and the cylinder head, forming a critical seal that contains combustion pressure while keeping oil and coolant passages separate. On compaction equipment like the DPU6555 series, the engine operates under sustained load and vibration, making gasket integrity especially important. When a head gasket fails or degrades, compression drops, the engine may overheat, and contaminant mixing between oil and coolant can cause severe internal damage — making timely, like-for-like replacement essential.
