The MARSHALLTOWN Vibratory Plate Compactor compacts gravel, sand, soil, aggregate, and other granular fill materials. It generates 3,802 lbs. of centrifugal force as compared to competitors that typically sit between 3,000 to 3,500 lbs. This helps it produce more compaction force and travel faster, saving contractors valuable time over the course of the year. It features a single piece plate and exciter design and comes with a foldable handle that locks in place for ergonomic unloading and efficient storage. The Vibratory Plate Compactor also has two lower handles that are balanced for ease when lifting to higher spots or over forms and a throttle lever located on the handle. This machine is equipped with a Honda® GX160 engine and is Made in the USA with Global Materials.
