The Multiquip 455324840 Piston Rod is a genuine OEM component designed for MVH-200DA2, MVH-200GH, and MVH-200DA reversible plate compactors. As a direct Multiquip OEM part, it is manufactured to the same specifications as the original component installed at the factory, ensuring a correct, trouble-free installation in your MVH-200 series machine. DHS Equipment sources this part directly through authorized Multiquip channels, so you can order with confidence knowing you are receiving the authentic 455324840.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Metallurgy: — Manufactured to Multiquip's original hardness and dimensional tolerances for the vibration exciter assembly, ensuring the rod withstands the high-cycle reciprocating loads specific to reversible plate compactors.
- Direct Drop-In Installation: — Engineered to match the original bore diameter, thread pitch, and length of the MVH-200 series exciter housing, so the part seats and torques correctly without machining or adjustment.
- Confirmed MVH-200 Series Fitment: — Verified for MVH-200DA2, MVH-200GH, and MVH-200DA reversible plate compactors; always cross-reference part number 455324840 against your serial plate before ordering.
- Sustained Compaction Output: — A sound piston rod transfers full eccentric-weight force to the plate, maintaining the compaction energy and depth of pass the MVH-200 series is rated to deliver. A worn or cracked rod reduces amplitude and leaves lifts under-compacted.
- Structural Safety in a High-Stress Application: — The piston rod operates under continuous impact loading inside the exciter housing. Using a correctly rated OEM rod reduces the risk of in-service fracture that could damage surrounding components or cause sudden loss of machine control.
The piston rod is a core component of the vibratory exciter mechanism inside a reversible plate compactor. It connects the eccentric-weight assembly and converts rotational motion into the reciprocating force that drives the compactor plate against the ground surface. When the piston rod is worn, cracked, or dimensionally out of spec, the exciter loses efficiency, compaction depth decreases, and abnormal vibration can accelerate wear throughout the drivetrain. Replacing a failed rod with a genuine OEM part restores the full rated compaction force and protects surrounding exciter components from secondary damage.
