The Multiquip 1612340201 Piston 0.25Mm Ec12D Mt-85 is a genuine OEM piston designed for MT85 series rammers. As a direct Multiquip OEM component, 1612340201 is manufactured to the exact dimensions and tolerances required for proper fit and function in the MT85 tamper. Sourced directly through authorized channels, this part carries the confidence of genuine Multiquip quality — the right choice when rebuilding or servicing your rammer's engine assembly.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Dimensional Accuracy — Machined to the precise 0.25mm oversize specification required for proper compression seal and bore fit in the MT85 engine.
- Direct Engine Rebuild Fitment — Engineered to install into the MT85 cylinder bore without secondary machining, pairing correctly with matching rings and connecting rod components.
- MT85 Rammer Compatibility — Confirmed fitment for MT85 series tampers; always verify your model and bore spec before ordering an oversize piston.
- Compression and Power Restoration — A correctly sized piston restores proper combustion chamber compression, returning the rammer to full striking force and consistent impact cycle performance.
- Engine Longevity After Bore Repair — Using the correct oversize OEM piston after a cylinder re-bore helps prevent blow-by, oil consumption, and premature wear that result from improper fitment.
The piston is the reciprocating component inside the engine cylinder that converts combustion pressure into mechanical force. In a rammer like the MT85, this force drives the tamping shoe downward at high frequency to compact soil. A worn or improperly sized piston causes a loss of compression, resulting in hard starting, weak impact force, and increased fuel consumption. When a cylinder is bored oversize during engine reconditioning, an oversize piston — such as this 0.25mm oversize unit — is required to restore the correct clearance between the piston and cylinder wall, ensuring an effective compression seal and full engine output.
