The Multiquip 16045 Handle Washer is a genuine OEM component designed for MTX50HD, MTX60HD, MTX70HD, MTX70HDR, and MTX80HDR rammers. As a direct factory replacement, this washer installs exactly as the original, keeping handle hardware properly seated and torqued. Sourced directly from Multiquip, part 16045 meets the same specifications as the part that came on your machine from day one. Confirm your model code before ordering to ensure a correct fit.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Manufactured to Multiquip's exact material and dimensional standards for handle hardware, ensuring proper load distribution and hardware retention at the handle mount.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Designed to seat correctly in the handle assembly of compatible MTX-series rammers without rework or shimming.
- Broad MTX Rammer Compatibility — Fits MTX50HD, MTX60HD, MTX70HD, MTX70HDR, and MTX80HDR models, covering both GX100 and GX120 Honda-powered rammer configurations.
- Protects Handle Integrity — A worn or missing handle washer allows fasteners to pull through or loosen under vibration, leading to handle instability during operation. Replacing it restores correct clamping force and handle security.
- Vibration-Resistance Matters Here — Rammers subject handle hardware to intense cyclical shock; this washer is specified to maintain clamping load under those conditions rather than deforming or cracking over time.
A handle washer serves as a bearing surface between a fastener and the handle mounting point, spreading clamping load evenly to prevent the bolt head or nut from pulling through or deforming the handle bracket. On a rammer, where the entire machine vibrates hundreds of times per minute, this small component works continuously to keep handle hardware from loosening or shifting. When the washer is worn, cracked, or missing, handle fasteners can work loose rapidly, compromising operator control and accelerating wear on the surrounding hardware.
