The Multiquip 1612340101 Piston Ec12D Mt-85 is a genuine OEM component designed for the MT85 series rammer. As a factory-sourced part, it is manufactured to the exact tolerances required by the original engine assembly, ensuring a correct fit without guesswork. This piston is verified for MT85 rammers and is sold through DHS Equipment as an authorized Multiquip replacement.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Manufactured to original engine tolerances, maintaining the combustion geometry and compression characteristics the MT85 rammer was engineered to deliver.
- Direct-Fit Replacement — Matches the bore diameter, pin dimensions, and ring groove specifications of the original piston, dropping into the cylinder without alteration.
- Confirmed MT85 Fitment — Sourced and validated specifically for MT85 series rammers; always verify by part number before ordering.
- Restored Engine Performance — A worn or scored piston causes loss of compression, misfires, and reduced impact force; replacing it with 1612340101 restores full tamping output.
- Fuel Efficiency and Combustion Integrity — A correctly seated piston maintains proper ring seal, preventing blow-by that wastes fuel and accelerates internal engine wear.
The piston is the reciprocating engine component that transfers combustion energy into mechanical force, driving the tamper shoe downward with each stroke. In a rammer like the MT85, this impact cycle repeats hundreds of times per minute, placing significant thermal and mechanical stress on the piston. A cracked, scuffed, or worn piston compromises compression, reduces strike energy, and can lead to complete engine failure if left unaddressed.
