The Multiquip 952405470 Shim MVH-302A is a genuine OEM shim designed for the MVH304GSB reversible vibratory plate compactor. As a direct OEM component sourced through Multiquip's authorized parts network, 952405470 delivers the exact thickness and material specification required to maintain proper alignment and clearance within the compactor's drive system. This shim is a confirmed fit for the MVH304GSB, ensuring components seat correctly without improvisation or guesswork at the time of service.
Key Features
- OEM-Spec Thickness Tolerance: Manufactured to the exact dimensional spec required for proper drivetrain clearance — critical for a reversible plate where alignment directly affects vibration output and directional control.
- Direct OEM Replacement: Part number 952405470 matches the original Multiquip shim specification, dropping into position without rework or shimming adjustments during reassembly.
- Confirmed MVH304GSB Fitment: Verified for the MVH304GSB reversible vibratory plate compactor — use the part number to confirm compatibility before ordering.
- Maintains Drive System Integrity: Correct shim thickness keeps internal components properly spaced, preventing premature wear on bearings, shafts, and adjoining hardware inside the compactor's exciter or drive assembly.
- Genuine Multiquip OEM Part: Sourced directly from Multiquip's authorized supply chain — same component installed at the factory, not a reverse-engineered substitute.
A shim is a precisely machined spacer used to set and maintain the correct clearance or alignment between moving and stationary components within a machine's drivetrain or housing assembly. In a reversible vibratory plate compactor like the MVH304GSB, correct shim thickness ensures that rotating components remain properly positioned under load, preventing metal-to-metal contact and uneven wear. When a shim is worn, deformed, or missing, it can cause misalignment, accelerated bearing failure, and a loss of consistent compaction force — ultimately compromising both machine longevity and surface compaction quality.
