Multiquip 17232891000 Air Cleaner Grommet

The Multiquip 17232891000 is a genuine OEM Air Cleaner Grommet designed for a wide range of Multiquip, Whiteman, Essick, and STOW equipment. This part spans an extensive fitment list including MVC and MVH series plate compactors, MC and WC concrete mixers, WM and EM mortar and plaster mixers, walk-behind trowels, power buggies, masonry and flat saws, pumps, and rollers. As a genuine OEM component, the part is produced to the same standards as the part originally installed at the factory, ensuring proper sealing and fit within the air cleaner assembly. Sourced directly through DHS Equipment, this grommet is the correct replacement when the original shows cracking, hardening, or deterioration.

Key Features

• Genuine OEM Sealing Integrity — Manufactured to the same material and dimensional specification as the original, maintaining an airtight seal between the air cleaner housing and engine intake across all listed models.
• Drop-In Replacement — Matches the original mounting profile and diameter, seating directly into the air cleaner housing without trimming or adapting.
• Broad Cross-Equipment Compatibility — A single part number covering MVC and MVH plate compactors, MC, WC, EC, and WM mixers, walk-behind trowels, power buggies, masonry saws, flat saws, pumps, and rollers across the Multiquip portfolio.
• Protects Engine Air Intake — A correctly seated grommet prevents unfiltered air and debris from bypassing the air cleaner element, keeping combustion clean and protecting internal engine components.
• Resists Heat and Compression Set — OEM rubber formulation maintains flexibility and sealing force through repeated heating and cooling cycles typical of gasoline-powered construction equipment.

The air cleaner grommet is the rubber seal that secures the air cleaner assembly to the engine's intake port or carburetor inlet. Its job is to create a tight, vibration-resistant connection that forces all incoming air through the filter element before it reaches the engine. When this grommet cracks, hardens, or deforms over time, gaps form that allow unfiltered air to enter the engine — accelerating wear on cylinders, pistons, and rings and potentially causing rough running or increased oil consumption. Replacing a worn grommet with the correct OEM part restores the sealed airflow path and ensures the air filtration system functions as intended.
