CVP16 Vibratory Plate Compactor

Studio Shot

DESCRIPTION

Vibratory action and dynamic force provides excellent compaction in a compact size.Cat® Vibratory Plate Compactors are used for compacting soil, sand or gravel prior to pouring concrete or laying asphalt surfaces. They are also ideal for asphalt patch work. Their capabilities and lower investment and maintenance costs make them popular with pavers, general contractors and utility contractors in residential, commercial or industrial applications.

Application

Used for compacting soil, sand or gravel prior to pouring concrete or laying asphalt surfaces. Also ideal for asphalt patch work.

Superior Compaction Force

These units produce high-power impulses at a rate of 2200 impacts per minute driving soil particles close together for solid, stable compactions.

Common Mounting Solutions

Cat vibratory plate compactors share the same mounting solutions as the Cat B and H model Hammers. Mounting brackets are available for pin on, pin grabber, pin lock, CW, and S type connections.

Protected Hydraulics

Hydraulic hoses are protected inside the frame of the compactor. Jumper lines are routed out the back of the compactor. Hoses are out of the way – even in tight trenches.

Easy Maintenance

Oil changes are simplified with the rear centerline plug. Oil can be changed while the compactor is installed.

Rubber Isolators

A heavy-duty steel frame and solid rubber isolator bushings deliver the maximum amount of power to the ground while minimizing machine impact.

Optional Backfill Blade

An optional bolt-on backfill blade can be mounted on both front and back of the compactor.

Optional Swivel Plate

An optional swivel plate that allows the operator to manually swivel the compactor, which allows for less repositioning while compacting.
