Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Manufactured to original design tolerances, so the extension mounts and seats exactly as the factory-installed part did — no improvising or shimming required.
- Structural Material Integrity — Built from the same grade material as the original plate extension, maintaining the structural rigidity needed to handle compaction loads without flexing or distorting.
- Direct DRH480D Fitment — Engineered specifically for the DRH480D roller, matching OEM hole patterns, dimensions, and mounting points for a straightforward bolt-on replacement.
- Restored Coverage and Compaction Width — A worn or damaged plate extension reduces effective compaction width and leaves uncompacted strips; replacing it restores full roller coverage across the pass width.
- Verified OEM Part 280544 — Sourced from Multiquip's genuine parts supply, so you receive the correct extension without substitution or cross-compatibility risk.
A plate extension on a roller increases the effective compaction width beyond the drum's base footprint, allowing the machine to compact closer to edges, curbs, or adjacent surfaces without leaving gaps. When a plate extension is cracked, bent, or missing entirely, the roller loses that added coverage, forcing additional passes or leaving inadequately compacted zones along the work edge. Keeping this component in serviceable condition is essential for maintaining consistent compaction results and efficient pass coverage on the DRH480D.
