The Multiquip EM454 is a genuine OEM Linear Actuator PA-17 2" designed for a wide range of Multiquip equipment, including MD80, MD105, and LD60 ride-on trowels, MVC and MVH plate compactors, MTX rammers, PRX hybrid power floats, and MRH800GS walk-behind rollers. As a direct OEM replacement, EM454 meets the exact output and travel specifications required by each machine it supports. Sourced directly from Multiquip, this actuator is the correct part for any service or repair requiring linear actuator replacement across these equipment families. Verify your model code against the fitment list before ordering to confirm compatibility.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Output Spec: — Manufactured to Multiquip's exact stroke length and force rating for the PA-17 application, ensuring the actuator delivers the correct travel and holding force every time.
- Drop-In Replacement: — Matches the original mounting points, connector interface, and 2" stroke of the factory-installed unit, so installation follows standard service procedures without modification.
- Broad Equipment Compatibility: — Fits MD80, MD105, LD60, MVC60VTH, MVC60VTHW, MVH158GH, MVH308GH, MVH508GH, MTX50HD through MTX80HDR rammers, PRX hybrid trowels, MRH800GS rollers, and additional models in the Multiquip lineup.
- Precision Motion Control: — Delivers the controlled linear movement needed for blade pitch adjustment on trowels, handle or throttle actuation on compactors, and other electronically commanded positioning functions across supported machines.
- Electrical Safety Compliance: — As a genuine OEM electrical actuator, EM454 carries the correct load ratings and connector specifications for the machine's control circuit, reducing the risk of wiring faults or overload conditions.
A linear actuator converts an electrical signal into controlled mechanical movement along a straight path. On ride-on trowels such as the MD80, MD105, and LD60, the actuator is used to adjust blade pitch or control drive functions remotely, allowing the operator to make precise changes without manual mechanical linkage. On plate compactors and rammers, it may manage throttle positioning or handle tilt. When a linear actuator fails or loses stroke accuracy, the machine loses its ability to respond correctly to operator inputs — leading to inconsistent performance, loss of control authority, or complete failure of the actuated function.
