The Multiquip 408010060 Socket Head Bolt 3/8X32 is a genuine OEM fastener designed for the MVC77 series plate compactor. Sourced directly from Multiquip, this bolt meets the exact thread pitch, head geometry, and tensile specification required for the application it serves on the MVC77. Confirmed OEM fitment means you are installing the correct part the first time, with no guesswork on thread size or head profile.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Tensile Specification — Manufactured to the exact grade and thread engagement required for structural fastener applications on compaction equipment, where under-spec hardware can compromise joint integrity.
- Exact Socket Head Profile — The recessed hex drive head seats flush in countersunk or close-tolerance bolt pockets, allowing full torque application with a standard hex key without clearance issues.
- Direct Replacement for MVC77 — Confirmed fitment for the Multiquip MVC77 plate compactor; matches the original bolt's 3/8 diameter and thread count for a direct, tool-ready swap.
- Maintains Joint Clamping Force — A correctly spec'd replacement bolt restores proper clamping load across mating components, preventing loosening, vibration-induced fatigue, and accelerated wear at the fastened joint.
- Critical for High-Vibration Environments — Plate compactors operate under continuous eccentric vibration; using the correct OEM-grade fastener in high-stress locations is essential to prevent hardware failure during operation.
A socket head bolt is a precision fastener used to secure structural and mechanical components where consistent clamping force and a low-profile head are required. On a plate compactor like the MVC77, fasteners in the drivetrain, exciter housing, and baseplate assembly are subjected to constant vibration and cyclic loading. When a bolt of this type stretches, strips, or fails, the components it holds can shift or separate, leading to accelerated wear, misalignment, or an unsafe operating condition. Replacing a worn or damaged bolt with the correct OEM part restores the joint to its original clamping specification and keeps the compactor running as intended.
