The Multiquip 18320ZB2000 is a genuine OEM Muffler Protector designed for GAC2.2HZ, GA2.5HR, and GAC2.5HR series gasoline-powered generators.

Keep your generator running safely and within spec with a direct OEM replacement sourced from Multiquip.
Key Features
- Factory-Original Heat Shielding — Genuine OEM construction means the protector meets the same material and thermal-resistance standards as the original part, not a close approximation.
- Direct Bolt-On Replacement — Engineered to match the original mounting points and contour on GAC2.2HZ, GA2.5HR, and GAC2.5HR generators for a straightforward swap with no reworking needed.
- Confirmed Fitment for GA and GAC Generator Series — Verified compatibility across the GAC2.2HZ, GA2.5HR, and GAC2.5HR gasoline generator models, eliminating guesswork when ordering.
- Protects Surrounding Components from Exhaust Heat — A properly functioning muffler protector shields adjacent wiring, hoses, and surfaces from radiant heat buildup, reducing the risk of heat-related wear on nearby parts.
- Exhaust System Safety — The muffler protector is a contact-burn prevention and heat-management component; using a correctly rated OEM part here matters for both operator safety and long-term generator integrity.
The muffler protector is a heat shield mounted over or around the exhaust muffler on a generator. Its job is to contain and redirect the intense heat the muffler generates during operation, protecting nearby components — such as fuel lines, wiring harnesses, and plastic housings — from sustained heat exposure that can cause premature failure. It also serves as a physical barrier against accidental contact burns for operators working near a running machine. When the protector is cracked, missing, or degraded, surrounding parts become vulnerable to heat damage and the risk of unintended contact with a hot exhaust surface increases significantly.
