Description
Bobcat RP49.20D Reversible Plate Compactor
The Bobcat® RP49.20D reversible plate compactor features the powerful compaction forces and hydrostatic steering you need for great results on jobsites big and small.
- Consistent compaction results
- Durable, twin-shaft vibratory system
- High productivity in a compact size
Overview:
- Equipped with a durable 8.8 hp-diesel engine, the Bobcat® RP49.20D is our most powerful reversible plate compactor, delivering impressive compaction forces.
- The well-balanced base plate distributes compaction power evenly, for efficient operation and consistent results on a variety of materials and grades.
- Power up the reversible plate compactor’s convenience with the optional electric start, toolless transport wheels and an hour meter.
- With optimum machine balance, continuous movement compaction and stationary work are equally productive, efficient and easy on the operator.
- Conveniently placed tie-down points and a central hook are integrated into the reversible plate compactor's frame for easy lifting and transport.
- The reversible plate compactor's base is designed to shed dirt and reduce material buildup for reduced maintenance.
Key Features
High-force diesel compaction with reversible control in a compact, jobsite-ready package.
8.8 hp Tier 4 Diesel Power
The RP49.20D pairs a rugged diesel engine with 11,015 lbf of centrifugal force for demanding reversible-plate compaction.
Hydraulic Direction Control
Easy-to-use hydraulic control enables fast directional changes and precise compaction in tight spaces.
Balanced, Material-Shedding Plate
A well-balanced base plate supports productive stationary or continuous-motion compaction while shedding material to reduce buildup.
Comfort & Transport Options
Vibration-isolating handle design, integrated tie-downs and central lifting hook support comfortable operation and convenient transport.
Built for Uptime
A tubular frame, protective covers and durable twin-shaft exciter help keep the plate in the field day after day.
