The Multiquip 001520851 Socket Bolt 8 x 55 is a genuine OEM fastener designed for MVH158GH and MVH128GH reversible plate compactors. As a factory-sourced component, it meets the exact material grade, thread pitch, and dimensional tolerances specified for these machines. Correct fitment is confirmed for both the MVH158GH and MVH128GH models, so you can install with confidence. DHS Equipment stocks this part to keep your compactor running with the hardware it was built around.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Hardware Grade — Manufactured to the exact tensile strength and thread specification required for structural fastener applications on heavy-duty reversible plate compactors.
- Direct Drop-In Installation — Matches the socket drive head profile and 8 x 55 mm dimensions of the original bolt, seating correctly without rework or modification.
- Confirmed Compactor Fitment — Verified fit for MVH158GH and MVH128GH reversible plate compactors in the Multiquip MVH heavy-duty series.
- Structural Integrity Where It Counts — A worn, stretched, or incorrect fastener in this position can lead to component loosening under vibration; the correct OEM bolt maintains clamping force through demanding compaction cycles.
- Corrosion-Resistant Finish — Factory-applied surface treatment helps the bolt withstand exposure to moisture, dirt, and the constant vibration environment of plate compactor operation.
A socket bolt is a hex-socket cap screw used to secure structural or mechanical components together at a fixed torque. On reversible plate compactors like the MVH series, fasteners of this type are subjected to continuous vibration and load cycling, making correct grade and dimensions critical to long-term assembly integrity. Using an undersized, incorrect-grade, or worn replacement bolt in these positions risks joint loosening, component damage, or failure under load — making like-for-like OEM replacement the straightforward choice.
