Vibratory Plate Compactor
Jumping Jack Rammer (Ele & Kanga)
Overview
A walk-behind forward plate for compacting sand, gravel and sub-base in tight spaces and trenches.
An upright rammer that pounds cohesive clay soils into compaction — ideal for trenches and around pipes.
Best for
Sand, gravel and crushed stone (granular material) · Paver, patio and walkway base preparation · Trenches, footpaths and confined areas · Small asphalt patch repairs
Clay and cohesive soils · Trench backfill around pipes and cables · Footings, post holes and tight spots · Deeper compaction than a plate
Not suited for
Wet, sticky clay — use a jumping jack rammer instead · Large open areas — a large plate or roller is faster
Sand and gravel — use a plate compactor · Large open areas
