The Multiquip 27723403J3 is a genuine OEM Piston 0.25 O.S. (67Dx40H) designed for MVC82VE and MVC82VEW series plate compactors. As a 0.25 oversize piston, this component is engineered for engines that have been bored out during a rebuild, restoring proper compression and engine performance to original operating specifications. Sourced directly from Multiquip, part number 27723403J3 delivers the exact dimensions required for a correct fit in the MVC82VE and MVC82VEW. DHS Equipment stocks genuine Multiquip OEM parts to keep your plate compactor running at full capacity.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Oversize Piston: — Manufactured to Multiquip's exact dimensional tolerances for the 0.25 oversize bore specification, ensuring correct compression ratio and ring seal after an engine rebore.
- Direct Rebuild Replacement: — Sized at 67mm diameter by 40mm height, this piston drops into a properly bored MVC82VE or MVC82VEW engine without additional machining or shimming.
- Confirmed Fitment for MVC82VE and MVC82VEW: — Verified for use in both the standard MVC82VE and the water-tank-equipped MVC82VEW plate compactors.
- Restores Engine Compression: — A worn or undersized piston allows combustion pressure to bypass the rings, robbing the compactor of power output. Installing 27723403J3 brings compression back to the level needed for consistent plate force and compaction depth.
- Authentic Multiquip OEM Part: — Backed by Multiquip's parts program and sold through DHS Equipment, an authorized distributor, so you receive a traceable, genuine component every time.
The piston is the core reciprocating component inside the engine cylinder, converting the force of combustion into the crankshaft motion that ultimately drives the exciter mechanism and vibrating plate. In a plate compactor like the MVC82VE, consistent piston-to-bore clearance is critical — even minor wear can reduce compression, cause hard starting, and lower the compaction force delivered to the ground. An oversize piston such as the part is used specifically when the cylinder bore has been honed or bored during a rebuild, bringing the piston-to-wall clearance back within spec and returning the engine to its original power output.
