The Multiquip 070200373 V-Belt is a genuine OEM V-Belt designed for MVH-series reversible plate compactors, including the MVH-306D, MVH-306DS, MVH-306DS2, MVH-406DSY, MVH406, and MVH-406DSZ. As a direct-from-manufacturer component, it is built to the exact length, width, and tension profile specified for these machines. Sourcing an OEM belt ensures the drive system performs as engineered, maintaining proper power transfer between the engine and the exciter mechanism. DHS Equipment stocks this part to help you keep your MVH compactor back on the ground without delays.
Key Features
- Correct Drive Geometry — Manufactured to the precise cross-section and length spec required by the MVH-series exciter drive, ensuring proper engagement with the sheaves without slippage or premature wear.
- Genuine OEM Quality — Sourced directly from Multiquip, this belt matches the original material grade and tension rating, so it handles the high-cycle, high-vibration demands of reversible plate compactor operation.
- Broad MVH-Series Compatibility — Confirmed fit for MVH-306D, MVH-306DS, MVH-306DS2, MVH-406DSY, MVH406, and MVH-406DSZ models, covering both the 306 and 406 compactor families.
- Sustained Compaction Output — A correctly tensioned belt delivers full power to the exciter assembly, maintaining consistent centrifugal force and compaction depth. A worn or cracked belt causes vibration loss and uneven compaction results.
- Drop-In Replacement — Installs using the standard belt-replacement procedure for MVH compactors — no modification to the guard, sheave, or tensioner bracket required.
The V-Belt on an MVH reversible plate compactor transmits engine power to the exciter assembly that generates the vibration used to compact soil, gravel, or asphalt. Without a properly functioning belt, the exciter cannot spin at the correct speed, which directly reduces compaction force and can cause uneven or incomplete compaction passes. Over time, belts stretch, crack, or fray from heat and constant flexing — when that happens, output drops noticeably and the belt can fail entirely mid-job. Replacing a worn belt with the correct OEM part restores full drive efficiency and protects the exciter bearings from the stress of an imbalanced load.
