Plate Compactor 550 x 440mm Honda GX160 Petrol Engine 20KN

A plate compactor built for groundwork, base preparation and surface compaction before finishing work starts. Using a Honda GX160 petrol engine, this petrol plate compactor delivers 20KN impact force to help firm down soil, sand and similar base layers where a stable surface matters.

Used across paving jobs, patio bases, driveways, landscaping work and general site preparation, this ground compactor suits tradespeople, contractors and anyone carrying out regular compaction work. When loose ground needs consolidating before laying blocks, slabs or other finished surfaces, the machine helps prepare the area more effectively. It is also useful for repeated groundwork where covering a practical amount of site at a steady pace is important.

The 550 x 440mm plate gives a useful working area without becoming awkward to position, while the stated compaction depth of up to 30cm makes it suitable for base layer preparation on a range of site jobs. A travelling speed of 23m/min and working efficiency up to 607 m²/hr make it better suited to day-to-day use than light occasional tasks. Supplied with wheels, it is easier to move around site between work areas, and the included rubber pad is useful where some surface protection is needed during the job. For regular groundwork and prep work, that combination helps keep the machine practical to use and easier to manage on site.
