What Compactor Do I Need?
A compactor is an essential tool for preparing a solid base for structures such as patios, retaining walls, concrete slabs, and more. Tamping rammers and compactors are used to increase the density of soil by reducing air voids, which help to improve soil stability, support structures, and prevent settling. With so many options on the market, choosing the right plate compactor can be a daunting task.
Small Jobs
If you are installing artificial turf, building dirt pathways, or need to improve soil stability - but do not need to adhere to a minimum compaction rating you can use a compactor in the 110 lbs (50 kilo) range. These are great for anyone looking to get a job done by themselves with little headache.
Medium Jobs
If your project involves building a retaining wall, patio, driveway, sidewalk, or concrete slab you will need a bit more muscle. Rammers and compactors in the 130-200 lbs (60-90 kilo) range that can achieve a compaction force above 3,000 lbs²/ft are best. You will achieve 98-100% compaction ratings needed for proper compaction to prevent soil settling and foundation damage.
Large Jobs
Equipment needed for large compaction projects should also be able to achieve a minimum compaction force of 3,000 lbs²/ft to reach 98-100% compaction ratings needed for proper compaction. Where this equipment differs from medium range equipment is it's efficiency. Large jobs are typically performed by professional contractors where speed and jobsite efficiency are critical to their success. Compactors that help jobsite efficiency may feature reverse control, hydraulic drive, and the ability to compact asphalt. If you are not too worried about the time it takes to complete a project, you can save a few bucks and invest in equipment in the medium range.

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Ask a Question-
What is the HP on this engine?
Our TR68H model has a 3.6 Horse Power Engine.
-
What warranty does it come with?
The rammer includes a 1-year Tomahawk manufacturer’s warranty, and the Honda GX120R engine is backed by a 3-year commercial warranty, giving you reliable coverage and support.
-
How does it differ from a plate compactor?
Jumping jacks provide vertical impact force, ideal for cohesive soils, whereas plate compactors use horizontal vibration for granular soils. This makes rammers better for deep trench and confined area compaction.
-
What type of soil is this rammer best suited for?
This unit is specifically designed for cohesive and mixed soils, including backfill, clay-heavy material, and moist earth that traditional plate compactors struggle with.
-
What is the size of the compaction shoe?
It features a 13" x 11" steel shoe, which allows for deeper compaction in tight areas like trenches, foundations, and around utility lines.
-
What is the compaction force of this unit?
The rammer delivers 3,550 lb/ft of compaction force, making it powerful enough for compacting cohesive soils like clay, silt, and loam, which are typically more difficult to compress.
