The Multiquip 11177 Upper Handle Tube is a genuine OEM replacement designed for HHN and HTN series ride-on mechanical power trowels, including the HHN31V, HHN34TVD, HTN27K, HTN28K, EHHNK5, and HHNG5. As a direct OEM component sourced through Multiquip's authorized parts network, part 11177 is manufactured to the same specifications as the original, ensuring a correct installation with no guesswork. DHS Equipment supplies this part to contractors and equipment dealers who need a dependable, like-for-like replacement to restore their trowel to full working condition.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Manufactured to original Multiquip specifications, so the tube's dimensions, wall thickness, and connection points match the factory-installed component exactly.
- Direct-Fit Replacement — Mounts in the same position as the original upper handle tube, connecting to the handle assembly without rework or adapter hardware.
- Broad HHN and HTN Series Fitment — Confirmed for HHN31V, HHN34TVD, HTN27K, HTN28K, EHHNK5, and HHNG5 ride-on mechanical trowels.
- Structural Integrity for Operator Control — The upper handle tube is a load-bearing structural member; a sound, undamaged tube keeps the handle assembly rigid and responsive during finishing passes.
- Operator Safety Relevance — A cracked, bent, or worn handle tube compromises the operator's ability to control the trowel safely; replacing it promptly with the correct OEM part restores proper handling characteristics.
The upper handle tube forms the backbone of the ride-on trowel's handle assembly, connecting the operator controls to the main frame of the machine. It bears the mechanical stress transferred through the handlebars during operation, keeping the control interface stable and secure. When this tube becomes bent, cracked, or corroded, handle flex increases and precise machine control becomes difficult — making timely replacement essential for both finishing quality and operator safety.
