The Multiquip 48566 Spider Coupling is a genuine OEM component designed for MD105 hydraulic ride-on power trowels.

If you're servicing an MD105 trowel and need a confirmed OEM replacement, the 48566 is the correct part for the job.

Key Features

• Genuine OEM Torque Transfer Integrity — Made to Multiquip's original coupling specifications, preserving the precise flex and load-handling characteristics required for smooth power transmission in hydraulic trowel drive systems.
• Direct-Fit Replacement — Engineered to seat and align exactly as the original coupling, with no reworking of mounting points or adjacent drive components needed during installation.
• Confirmed MD105 Fitment — Verified for use on Multiquip MD105 mid-sized hydraulic ride-on power trowels, removing any guesswork when ordering for this machine.
• Maintains Drive Smoothness — A worn or cracked spider coupling causes vibration, slack, and uneven blade engagement. Replacing it with the correct OEM part restores smooth, consistent trowel blade operation.
• Durable Spider Insert Construction — The flexible spider element absorbs shock loads between drive shafts, protecting connected components from impact stress during trowel operation.

A spider coupling connects two rotating shaft ends and transmits torque between them while accommodating minor misalignment and absorbing drivetrain shock. In a hydraulic ride-on trowel like the MD105, the coupling plays a key role in delivering smooth, consistent power from the hydraulic drive system to the trowel's blade assemblies. When the spider insert wears or fractures, operators typically notice increased vibration, irregular blade response, or unusual noise from the drive — all signs that the coupling needs immediate replacement to prevent damage to surrounding drivetrain components.
