The Multiquip 401010240 Eccentric Weight is a genuine OEM component designed for the MVC90H plate compactor. As a direct OEM replacement sourced through Multiquip's authorized parts network, this part is built to the same specifications as the original, ensuring your compactor performs exactly as designed. If you're servicing an MVC90H and need to restore proper compaction output, the 401010240 is the correct replacement part for the job.
Key Features
- OEM-Grade Mass and Balance: Manufactured to the original rotational mass specification, maintaining the correct centrifugal force output that drives compaction performance on the MVC90H.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement: Engineered to mount directly to the exciter housing on the MVC90H with no secondary machining or fitting adjustments needed.
- Confirmed MVC90H Fitment: Verified for use on the Multiquip MVC90H single-directional plate compactor — confirm your model before ordering.
- Restore Full Compaction Force: A worn or damaged eccentric weight reduces vibratory output and compaction depth. Replacing it with a correctly balanced OEM part brings the machine back to rated compaction performance.
The eccentric weight is the core component responsible for generating the vibratory force that allows a plate compactor to consolidate soil, gravel, and asphalt. Mounted on a rotating shaft inside the exciter housing, its offset mass creates centrifugal force as it spins, which translates into the rapid, powerful vibrations the base plate delivers to the ground. When the eccentric weight is worn, cracked, or out of balance, the machine produces noticeably reduced vibration amplitude — resulting in poor compaction depth, uneven surface results, and increased operator effort. Replacing it promptly with a correctly specified part is essential to restoring full machine output.
