Key Features
- Genuine OEM Mass Accuracy — Manufactured to Multiquip's exact weight specification for the 03796000, ensuring the exciter assembly maintains its engineered balance and vibration output.
- Direct-Fit Replacement — Designed to mount directly in place of the original counter weight on the MVH508DZ exciter shaft, requiring no machining or fitment adjustments.
- MVH508DZ Compatibility Confirmed — Verified fitment for the Multiquip MVH508DZ reversible plate compactor series.
- Vibration Performance Restored — A correctly weighted counter weight maintains the centrifugal force needed for consistent compaction depth and surface coverage; a worn or incorrect weight causes uneven vibration and poor compaction results.
- Genuine Multiquip OEM Quality — Backed by Multiquip's OEM part standards, this counter weight is built from the same materials and to the same tolerances as the part it replaces.
The counter weight is a precision-machined component mounted on the exciter shaft inside a vibratory plate compactor. As the shaft spins, the counter weight generates the centrifugal force that drives the plate's vibration, which is what allows the machine to compact soil, gravel, or asphalt effectively. If the counter weight is cracked, worn, or out of balance, the compactor will produce irregular vibration, reduced compaction force, and increased stress on surrounding drivetrain components — making timely replacement critical to maintaining full machine performance.
