The Multiquip 457010100 Key MVH402 is a genuine OEM key designed for the MVH-402 reversible plate compactor. Sourced directly from Multiquip, this replacement key ensures an exact match to the original component installed on MVH-402 machines at the factory. If your existing key is worn, sheared, or lost, 457010100 is the correct OEM-specified replacement to restore proper operation.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Manufactured to the same material grade and dimensional tolerances as the original key, ensuring proper engagement between mating shaft and hub components.
- Direct-Fit for MVH-402 — Engineered specifically for the MVH-402 reversible plate compactor; slots directly into the keyway without modification.
- Protects Drive Components — A correctly fitted key transmits torque cleanly between the shaft and driven component, preventing the fretting and wear that occurs when a damaged or undersized key is left in service.
- Prevents Costly Secondary Damage — A sheared or missing key allows shaft-to-hub slippage that can score keyways and damage more expensive assemblies; replacing it promptly with 457010100 limits repair scope.
- Verified Multiquip OEM Sourcing — Sold by DHS Equipment as an authorized Multiquip parts distributor, so you receive an authentic component backed by the manufacturer.
A key is a small, precisely sized fastener that fits into matching keyways cut into both a rotating shaft and the hub of a driven component — such as a pulley, sprocket, or flywheel. Its job is to lock those two parts together rotationally so that torque is transferred from one to the other without slipping. On a reversible plate compactor like the MVH-402, this connection is critical to consistent exciter operation and compaction output. When a key shears or wears, the shaft spins independently inside the hub, causing loss of drive, vibration irregularities, and accelerating damage to the keyway surfaces of both parts.
