Key Features
- Genuine OEM Heat-Grade Construction — Manufactured to withstand the high-temperature environment surrounding the muffler on Honda GX160-powered compactors, maintaining structural integrity under sustained operation.
- Direct-Mount Replacement — Installs to the same mounting points as the original protector, ensuring a clean, secure fit without fabrication or modification.
- Broad Plate Compactor Coverage — Compatible with MVC88VTH, MVC88VTHW, MVB85H, MVC82VH, MVC82VHW, and MVH128GH models, covering both single-directional and reversible plate compactor families.
- Operator Burn Protection — The muffler protector acts as a physical barrier between the hot exhaust components and the operator and surrounding materials, making it a critical safety component that should be replaced promptly when damaged.
- Verified OEM Part Number — Part number 18320Z4M000 matches Multiquip's current OEM catalog, so you can be confident you are ordering the correct standard muffler protector for your machine.
The muffler protector, also referred to as a muffler cover or heat shield, surrounds the exhaust muffler on the plate compactor and serves as a barrier against accidental contact burns and heat transfer to nearby components or materials. On compactors operating in tight spaces or near flammable materials, a damaged or missing protector creates a genuine safety risk for operators and bystanders. When this component becomes cracked, corroded, or detached, it should be replaced immediately to restore proper heat shielding and maintain safe operation.
