Description
Pack dense aggregate lifts with the Bomag BPR 35/60 Reversible Plate across trench bedding and footing runs. A genuine Honda GX160 petrol engine powers the eccentric housing to deliver 7868 pounds of centrifugal force. The eccentric shaft lacks hydraulic assist during stiff directional reversals. You throw a mechanical lever to reverse travel direction on trench passes.
High-strength nodular cast iron forms the base plate to resist fracture under heavy stone impact. The four-stroke air-cooled Honda GX160 engine runs at 3600 RPM and produces 4.8 gross horsepower with an oil alert sensor shutdown. A heavy centrifugal clutch engages a V-belt drive enclosed within a sealed sheet-steel cover. Unboxed machine weight totals 452 lbs while the base footprint measures 23.6 inches wide by 30.5 inches long on raw ground.
Key Features of Bomag BPR-35-60
Contractors buy Bomag BPR-35-60 units to hit compaction density on utility trenches, asphalt repairs, and interlocking paving projects. Check commercial vibratory compactor pricing before bidding municipal roadwork contracts that mandate certified base preparation.
- Cast iron bottom wear plate resists abrasion from sharp crushed gravel to extend bottom life
- Honda GX160 pull start engine provides reliable combustion torque across freezing cold morning shifts
- Single lever mechanical control shifts travel direction without hydraulic fluid leaks or hose bursts
- V-belt guard shields the drive system against dirt ingress during backfill runs
- Foldable steering handle swings upright to cut transport trailer floor space consumption
- Solid steel protection frame shields the engine block against trench wall impacts
- Integrated lifting point balances machine weight when crane hoists move it between pits
Dynamic Bench Compaction Force Metrics
Testing reveals an operating frequency of 80 Hertz with an amplitude of 0.059 inches against compacted crushed rock. Centrifugal output holds steady at 7868 pounds of force while plate advance speeds reach 88 feet per minute on level sand. Shaft bearings show a 42 degree Fahrenheit temperature rise above ambient air after two hours of continuous bench vibration. Engine speed drops by 140 RPM when the bottom surface encounters non-yielding granite boulders, so hold back throttle strain to preserve clutch lining.
Field Handling Service Reality Points
Vibration dampening rubber mounts beneath the guide handle drop hand-arm vibration down to 2.8 meters per second squared, saving crew grip fatigue across long work days. Do not purchase this heavy plate for narrow plumbing pipes under eighteen inches or massive interstate asphalt runs that demand heavy tandem rollers.
- Check exciter housing lubrication through the drain plug inspection port every one hundred operating hours
- Clean the dual engine air cleaner foam pre-filter after eight hours of dusty trench passes
- Inspect drive belt tension by thumb deflection every fifty hours to stop slippage under load
