Application

Used to compact trenches and easily backfill.

Tamper Foot Design with Static Pad Rollers

Static pad rollers are best suitable for compacting cohesive soils and achieving a higher degree of compaction.

Tapered Roller Bearing

Tapered roller bearing provides smooth wheel operation and appropriate tool balance.

Standard Backfill Plate

Backfill plate bolts onto main tool interface to be used in collaboration with wheel, to create smooth trench bottom.

Open Rim Design
