Product highlights

Our Light Vibrating Plate is perfect for maintenance and repair work. If you need to compact hardcore, sand, gravel, soil or tarmac to make a smooth surface ready to lay artificial grass, create a pathway or driveway, fill a pothole or lay a greenhouse base then this piece of kit will complete the task with ease.

The wacker plate is lightweight but with a strong compaction force so gets the job done quickly. It has low hand-arm vibration designed so you can use it for longer jobs safely. This vibrating plate is easy to manoeuvre and control as the baseplate does not dig in when dragged or turned.

Please Note - Fuel is not supplied with this item. We are restricted by law from selling petrol however petrol can be purchased from a petrol station using an approved petrol storage container. A petrol can is available to buy from HSS Hire and can be added when completing your purchase online or purchased in branch.
