The Wacker Neuson Side Panel Weldment is a genuine OEM structural component designed for the HI260 and HI1000 series indirect air heaters. As a factory-sourced replacement, this weldment is manufactured to the exact dimensions and material specifications of the original part, ensuring a direct, trouble-free installation. It is confirmed to fit multiple HI1000 configurations — including diesel, gas, and DGM variants — as well as HI260 heater units with and without integrated tanks. Keep part number on hand to restore the structural integrity of your heater unit without compromise.
Key Features
- Structural-Grade Weld Construction — Fabricated to OEM weld and material standards, delivering the rigidity and load-bearing capacity the original design requires.
- Drop-In Panel Replacement — Matches original mounting points and panel geometry for a straightforward swap with no rework or re-drilling of surrounding components.
- Broad HI-Series Heater Fitment — Compatible with HI260 and HI1000 indirect air heaters across diesel, gas, and DGM configurations, covering a wide range of job site heating setups.
- Protects Internal Heater Components — A sound side panel weldment shields internal burner and heat exchanger assemblies from mechanical damage and environmental exposure; a damaged panel puts those components at risk.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson OEM Part — Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, part 5200015345 carries the full assurance of authentic manufacturer origin and correct part number verification.
The side panel weldment forms a core section of the heater's outer structural frame, providing rigid support for the unit's casing and protecting the internal combustion and heat exchange components housed within. It bears the mechanical stresses of transport, positioning, and day-to-day operation on the job site. When a side panel weldment is cracked, bent, or otherwise compromised, the structural alignment of the entire heater enclosure is at risk — potentially exposing internal components to damage and making safe operation unreliable.
