The Bobcat trench compactor attachment is an invaluable tool to pack down soil once the trench has been prepared and cables placed.
The Bobcat trench compactor attachment is successfully applied for compacting soil after laying power cables and water lines in locations such as private gardens, golf courses and parks, and finishes off any trenching job efficiently and neatly. The large, wheel-type compactor works efficiently in trenches four to 12 inches wide, and up to four feet deep. The compactor powers into the soil and packs it down with force using a vibratory shaker box, featuring a built-in flow regulator to ensure proper RPM, for optimum compaction of any type of soil. To achieve the desired compaction in trenches more than two feet deep, it is recommended to backfill and compact the soil in two or three layers.
Features include replaceable pads for easy on-site attachment maintenance and the double-gear, oil-bath style vibratory shaker box designed to deliver trouble-free operation.
