The Wacker Neuson 5100036078 is a genuine OEM Ratchet designed for BPS and VP series single-direction vibratory plate compactors, including the BPS1030A, BPS1135A, BPS1340A, BPS1550A, BPS2050A, and VP1135A US models. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this part matches the original specification installed at the factory. It covers a wide range of BPS variants — including standard, water-ballasted (w), and water-ballasted with scraper (ws) configurations — as well as US and EU regional variants across the BPS lineup.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Ratchet Mechanism: — Manufactured to the exact engagement tolerances required for smooth, positive ratcheting action in Wacker Neuson vibratory plate compactors.
- Drop-In Replacement: — Matches the original mounting interface and dimensions, allowing straightforward installation without modification to surrounding components.
- Broad BPS and VP Series Coverage: — Confirmed fit across BPS1030A, BPS1135A, BPS1340A, BPS1550A, BPS2050A, and VP1135A US plate compactors, including w, ws, US, and EU variants.
- Restores Proper Drive Engagement: — A worn or damaged ratchet causes slippage or loss of drive transfer; replacing it with a correctly spec'd OEM part restores consistent compaction output.
- Verified Part Number: — Order with confidence using Wacker Neuson part number 5100036078 to confirm you are receiving the correct component for your specific machine.
The ratchet in a vibratory plate compactor is a mechanical component that allows rotation in one direction while preventing reverse movement, ensuring consistent power transfer from the drive system to the exciter mechanism. When the ratchet wears or fails, the compactor may lose effective drive engagement, resulting in reduced compaction force or erratic plate movement. Replacing a faulty ratchet with a correctly fitted OEM part restores the machine's full compaction performance and protects the surrounding drive components from accelerated wear.
