The Multiquip 939010380 Shock Absorber is a genuine OEM component designed for MVH-series reversible plate compactors, including the MVH508GH, MVH408DE, MVH308DZ, MVH508GV, and MVH408GV. As a direct Multiquip OEM part, it is manufactured to the exact specifications required for proper fit and function within these heavy-duty reversible plates. Sourced directly through authorized channels, this shock absorber is the correct replacement for operators maintaining their MVH-series equipment to original build standards.
Key Features
- OEM-Grade Damping Performance — Engineered to the original compression and rebound specifications for MVH-series reversible plate compactors, ensuring consistent vibration isolation at the handle mount.
- Direct-Mount Replacement — Matches the original mounting hardware and attachment points, allowing straightforward installation without fabrication or adaptation.
- Broad MVH-Series Compatibility — Confirmed fit for MVH508GH, MVH408DE, MVH308DZ, MVH508GV, and MVH408GV reversible plate compactors.
- Operator Fatigue Reduction — A properly functioning shock absorber absorbs machine vibration before it transfers to the operator handle, supporting extended use in compliance with vibration exposure guidelines.
- Vibration Exposure Safety — Worn or failed shock absorbers allow excessive vibration to reach the operator, potentially breaching hand-arm vibration (HAV) exposure limits. Replacing with a correct OEM unit helps maintain compliant operating conditions.
The shock absorber on a reversible plate compactor isolates the machine's high-frequency vibration from the operator handle assembly. It acts as a buffer between the vibrating compactor plate and the handlebar, absorbing energy that would otherwise transmit directly to the operator's hands and arms during operation. When a shock absorber wears out or fails, vibration levels at the handle increase significantly — accelerating operator fatigue, reducing steering control, and potentially exposing workers to harmful hand-arm vibration levels that exceed safe operating thresholds.
