Plate Compactor – 48kg

Our 48 kg PortaPac Plate Compactor is suitable for all trades and domestic use, designed for ultimate manoeuvrability and ease of transport. Incorporating a narrow base plate, this plate compactor can complete soil compaction works in tight and restricted spaces where larger plate compactors cannot fit.

The built-in wheel kit eliminates the need to manually lift the unit around the job site. Portability is optimised with a central lifting point for safe and easy lifting, plus folding handles for straightforward transportation.

Ideal for compacting bituminous and granular materials such as soils, gravels, sands, or their mixtures. The site should be graded and levelled beforehand. Proper soil moisture is essential, as water lubricates and helps bind particles. Vibratory motion enhances compaction and offers a self-propelling effect.

Our trained staff at Barossa Valley Hire will demonstrate to you just how easy this Plate Compactor is to use. It’s transport versatility makes it one of our most popular hire items.
