The Multiquip 456343340 is a genuine OEM Clutch Assembly designed for MVH-series reversible plate compactors, including the MVH208GH, MVH308GH, MVH308DE, MVH308DZ, MVH408GH, MVH408GV, MVH508GH, and MVH508GV. As an authorized Multiquip OEM part, 456343340 is manufactured to the same specifications as the original component, ensuring a direct, correct-fit replacement. DHS Equipment stocks this part to keep your reversible plate compactor running at full capacity with zero guesswork on compatibility.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Engagement Precision — Manufactured to exact Multiquip tolerances, ensuring the clutch engages and disengages at the correct RPM threshold for consistent compaction performance.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Engineered to mount and connect using the existing hardware and drive configuration of MVH-series reversible plates, eliminating fitment uncertainty.
- Broad MVH Series Compatibility — Confirmed fit across MVH208GH, MVH308GH, MVH308DE, MVH308DZ, MVH408GH, MVH408GV, MVH508GH, and MVH508GV reversible plate compactors.
- Restored Drive Power Delivery — A correctly functioning clutch transfers engine power to the exciter unit cleanly; a worn clutch causes slipping, loss of vibration force, and uneven compaction output.
- Operational Safety Under Load — The clutch is a critical control component on reversible plates; using a properly rated OEM assembly maintains correct engagement behavior and reduces the risk of uncontrolled machine movement.
The clutch assembly on a reversible plate compactor is responsible for transferring engine power to the exciter mechanism that drives plate vibration and directional movement. When the engine reaches operating speed, the clutch engages to connect the drive, allowing the operator to control forward and reverse travel with full compaction force. A worn or damaged clutch causes erratic engagement, reduced vibration output, or complete loss of drive — leaving the machine unable to deliver consistent compaction depth across the work surface.
