The Multiquip 1612040200 Crankshaft is a genuine OEM component designed for MT85 series rammers. Sourced directly through Multiquip's authorized parts program, this crankshaft meets the original engineering specifications for the engine assemblies used in MT85 tamping equipment. It is a direct replacement for the factory crankshaft and installs into the engine block without modification. Confirm your model and engine type against part number 1612040200 before ordering to ensure correct fitment.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Crankshaft Construction — Machined to the original dimensional tolerances, ensuring correct stroke geometry and bearing journal fit within the engine assembly.
- Direct Engine Block Replacement — Drops into the existing crankcase housing on MT85 rammers, aligning with main bearings and connecting rod interfaces as originally assembled.
- Compatible with MT85 Rammers — Confirmed fitment for Multiquip MT85 series tamping equipment; verify your engine variant against part number 1612040200 prior to installation.
- Restores Full Compaction Stroke — A worn or damaged crankshaft causes irregular stroke, loss of impact force, and excessive vibration; replacing it with this OEM part returns the rammer to its rated compaction output.
- Engine Integrity and Longevity — Using a correctly spec'd OEM crankshaft prevents premature wear on connecting rod bearings, main bearings, and seals throughout the engine.
The crankshaft is the central rotating component inside a rammer's engine. It converts the up-and-down motion of the piston into the rotational force that drives the machine's ramming mechanism, delivering the repeated impact strokes needed to compact soil, gravel, and trench backfill. When a crankshaft is worn, cracked, or out of specification, the engine loses power and smoothness, stroke frequency becomes inconsistent, and internal bearing surfaces suffer accelerated damage — ultimately leading to full engine failure if left unaddressed.
