The handy thlc29140 is a petrol plate compactor designed to prepare soil, sand, and gravel surfaces ahead of construction and groundworks projects. Powered by a loncin 87cc ohv 4-stroke petrol engine, this plate compactor delivers a centrifugal force of 8,200n with an exciter speed of 5,900vpm, compacting loose material to a depth of 200mm. This level of compaction drives loose particles together to create a firm, load-bearing surface, significantly reducing the risk of soil settlement, water seepage, and frost damage. With a travel speed of 25m min and a plate size of 495 x 320mm, the thlc29140 is well suited to groundwork preparation, paving base compaction, and trench backfilling. The 4-stroke engine is built for the demands of regular site use, offering consistent performance across a range of ground conditions. The compactor is compatible with handy's optional folding wheel kit part no: hdythlc31120, sold separately , which can be folded down for easier movement between job sites.
