Multiquip 28444-001 Spring Retainer

The Multiquip 28444-001 Spring Retainer is a genuine OEM component designed for a wide range of Multiquip, Whiteman, and Essick equipment across multiple product families. This part is confirmed to fit MVH208GH, MVH308GH, and MVH408GH plate compactors, WM70, WM120SH, and WM120PH Whiteman mixers, MC64, MC94, and MC12PH concrete mixers, GAW180HE series arc welders, GA-series gasoline generators, QP402H and QP3TH pumps, V305EH and MRH800GS rollers, R2000H static roller, and MP-series masonry saws — making it one of the most widely applicable service parts in the Multiquip lineup. As a direct OEM replacement, the 28444-001 meets the original build specification and installs without modification. Keeping the correct Spring Retainer in place is essential to maintaining consistent mechanical tension and spring-loaded assembly integrity across these platforms.

Key Features

• Genuine OEM Spring Retention — Manufactured to Multiquip's original specification, ensuring the correct spring load and seating geometry for this retainer's role in mechanical assemblies.

• Broad Cross-Family Compatibility — Confirmed fitment across MVH-series plate compactors, WM and MC-series mixers, GAW-series welders, GA-series generators, QP and trash pump models, walk-behind rollers, and MP masonry saws.
• Mechanical Integrity Under Load — A properly seated spring retainer maintains consistent spring compression and prevents component drift, ensuring connected assemblies operate within their designed travel range.
• Single Part, Multiple Applications — Stocking one 28444-001 covers service needs across a broad fleet, making it a practical choice for dealers and multi-equipment operators alike.

A spring retainer is a small but mechanically critical component that holds a coil or compression spring in its correct seated position within an assembly. It prevents the spring from shifting, backing out, or losing tension during operation. When a retainer wears, cracks, or is lost during service, the spring it holds can migrate out of position — causing inconsistent operation, accelerated wear on adjacent components, or complete loss of the spring-loaded function in that assembly. Using the correct OEM retainer, such as the Multiquip 28444-001, ensures the spring is captured at the right depth and angle as the original design intended.
