Key Features
- OEM Cable Construction — Built to the precise 3.5 x 06 spec and 72" length of the original, maintaining the correct throttle travel and tension for proper engine response.
- Direct Connector Match — Terminates with the factory-correct end fittings so the cable seats and locks into the throttle housing and engine carb without alteration.
- Broad Rammer Compatibility — Fits MTX50HD, MTX60HD, MTX70HD, MTX70HF, MTX60HF, MTX70HDR, MTX80HDR, and MTR40HF rammer models from Multiquip's MTX and MTR series.
- Consistent Throttle Control — A stretched, frayed, or broken throttle cable causes erratic RPM, poor compaction force, and difficult starting; a fresh OEM cable restores predictable, smooth engine control.
- Genuine Multiquip OEM Part — Carrying the Multiquip part number 15171, this cable meets the same material and durability standards as the cable installed at the factory.
The throttle cable on a rammer is the mechanical link between the operator's hand control and the engine's carburetor throttle plate. When you open or close the throttle lever, the cable transmits that input directly to regulate engine RPM, which in turn controls the striking force and frequency of the rammer. A worn or damaged cable creates slack, sticking, or complete loss of throttle response — making it impossible to control compaction output accurately. Replacing a faulty cable with the correct OEM unit restores full, smooth throttle authority and keeps the machine operating within its intended performance range.
