FP15.50 Overview

  • Put the FP15.50 forward plate compactor to work in a wide range of applications and leave behind high-compaction results. 
  • Designed to isolate plate vibrations from the operator’s handle, Bobcat forward plate compactors minimize hand-arm vibration and fatigue. 
  • Moving a Bobcat forward plate compactor from one jobsite to another is easy with the optional, toolless transport wheels and central lift bar. 
  • Control dust or keep the vibratory base plate free of hot asphalt buildup with the standard water tank and sprinkler system. 
  • The one-piece cast base plate is designed with no connection points that can weaken over time. The base plate is also thicker in the rear, where most wear occurs.
