The Multiquip M18011 Optional Weight Kit is a genuine OEM component designed for MQ Flat Saws and Pavement Saws, including SP4, SP605716, SP605720, SP605726, SP605730, SP605736, and SP6457 series machines. As a direct Multiquip OEM part, M18011 is built to the same specifications as the original hardware that left the factory, ensuring a proper fit without the guesswork of adapting an off-the-shelf solution. If your saw calls for additional ballast to optimize blade engagement and cutting depth, this is the correct kit to specify.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Weight Specification: — Engineered to the exact load rating Multiquip specifies for controlled blade pressure and consistent cutting depth.
- Direct-Fit Installation: — Mounts to existing attachment points on MQ Flat Saws and Pavement Saws with no custom fabrication or improvised hardware.
- Broad MQ Saw Compatibility: — Confirmed fitment across SP4, SP605716, SP605720, SP605726, SP605730, SP605736, and SP6457 models.
- Improved Blade-to-Surface Contact: — Added weight increases downforce on the blade head, which helps maintain steady cutting speed and reduces blade chatter on hard or uneven pavement surfaces.
- Correct Part for Operator-Selected Ballast: — Because this is an optional kit rather than a standard component, using the OEM-specified version ensures the added mass is balanced for the frame geometry of these saws.
An optional weight kit adds supplemental ballast to a pavement or flat saw to increase downforce on the blade assembly. Greater downforce improves blade-to-surface contact, which helps the saw track straighter, reduces bouncing on aggregate surfaces, and extends blade life by keeping the cutting edge engaged evenly. Without the correct amount of weight for the application, operators may experience blade wandering, reduced cutting efficiency, or accelerated wear on one side of the blade.
