This compact plate compactor delivers powerful soil compaction in a lightweight, maneuverable design. With a 4.0 HP Honda GX120 engine, it provides 3,600 vibrations per minute for efficient compaction of granular soils, sand, and gravel. The MVC-40's 14-inch plate width allows access to confined spaces while still offering a compaction force of 8.8 kN, making it ideal for small to medium repair jobs and tight work areas. Its low-profile design and ergonomic handle reduce operator fatigue during extended use, while the integrated water tank system prevents material adhesion when working with asphalt.
