The Wacker Neuson Cheese Head Screw is a genuine OEM cheese head screw designed for the DPU6555Heh, DPU6555Hech, DPU5545Heh, DPU5260Hehb+, and DPU6275Hehb+ series reversible plate compactors. As a factory-authorized component, it is manufactured to the exact dimensions and thread specifications required for a correct, secure installation. This screw is the right choice when restoring your machine to its original assembly condition — sourced direct from Wacker Neuson and carrying the full backing of their OEM parts program. Confirm compatibility using your machine's model number before ordering to ensure a direct match.
Key Features
- Exact Thread and Head Geometry — Manufactured to OEM tolerances, ensuring proper torque load and flush seating without fastener deformation or stripping.
- Direct-Fit Replacement — Engineered to seat into the factory mounting position with no reworking of threads or mating surfaces required.
- Broad DPU Series Compatibility — Fits multiple Wacker Neuson reversible plate compactor models including DPU6555Heh, DPU6555Hech, DPU5545Heh, DPU5260Hehb+, and DPU6275Hehb+.
- Structural Integrity Under Vibration — A correctly specified fastener holds critical assemblies secure during the high-vibration operating cycles typical of plate compactor use; an incorrect or worn screw risks loosening and component damage.
- Genuine OEM Part — Supplied by Wacker Neuson as part 5100069028, ensuring the material grade and dimensional spec match what left the factory originally.
A cheese head screw is a cylindrical-headed fastener with a flat top and straight sides, commonly used in machinery where a low-profile but wide bearing surface is needed to clamp or secure components firmly in place. In plate compactors, fasteners like this one hold together key structural and mechanical assemblies that must remain tight through continuous vibration during compaction work. When a screw of this type wears, strips, or is replaced with an incorrect substitute, it can lead to component misalignment, accelerated wear on mating parts, or outright mechanical failure — making like-for-like OEM replacement the most reliable repair approach.
