The Multiquip 28441ZW9003 Friction Spring GX100 is a genuine OEM component designed for GX100-equipped rammers and plate compactors, including the MTX70HF, MTR40HF, MTX50HD, and MVC40H. As a factory-sourced part, the 28441ZW9003 is built to the exact specification of the original, ensuring a direct, hassle-free installation with no guesswork on fitment. Whether you are servicing a walk-behind rammer on a trenching job or maintaining a plate compactor between pours, having the correct friction spring keeps the engine governor assembly functioning as intended. Trust Multiquip OEM quality to restore your equipment to full operating condition.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Spring Tension: — Manufactured to the original tension specification for the GX100 engine governor linkage, so throttle response and engine speed control behave exactly as designed.
- Direct Drop-In Installation: — Matches the original mounting points and hook geometry on the GX100 engine, allowing straightforward swap-out without modification to surrounding components.
- Broad GX100 Equipment Fitment: — Confirmed for MTX70HF, MTR40HF, MTX50HD rammers and MVC40H plate compactor, covering multiple Multiquip GX100-powered compaction machines from a single part number.
- Governor Linkage Integrity: — A worn or broken friction spring causes erratic engine speed, loss of consistent compaction force, and potential over-revving; replacing it promptly restores stable, controlled operation.
- Verified Multiquip Part Number: — Sourced directly from Multiquip's OEM supply chain under part number 28441ZW9003, eliminating the risk of receiving a non-compatible substitute.
The friction spring in a GX100 engine is a small but critical piece of the governor linkage assembly. It applies the correct amount of tension to keep the governor arm and throttle linkage in proper position, which allows the engine to maintain a steady speed under varying load conditions. When this spring weakens, stretches, or breaks, the governor can no longer regulate engine speed accurately, leading to surging, hunting, or an engine that will not hold a consistent RPM — all of which directly undermine compaction performance and can accelerate wear on surrounding engine components.
