The Wacker BPS1030 W Series petrol-powered single direction vibratory compaction plate is designed for efficient compaction and excellent handling on mixed soils and fresh asphalt, with 10kN of centrifugal force and an area capacity of 500m²/h, making it ideal for smaller jobs and use in limited access or working space. It is supplied as standard with a 8-llitre capacity water tank and sprinkler bar.

It is also easy to operate, control, transport and store too, with low hand arm vibrations that permit extended periods of continuous use without fatigue.

This versatile, fast moving, robust, agile, responsive, comfortable to use and easy to operate professional plate compactor features a durable 5mm thick baseplate provides reliable performance and longevity, while its guide handle responds precisely to steering movements providing excellent turning ability, with simultaneously reduced hand-arm vibrations to the greatest extent possible; the result being maximum control with minimum effort.
