15-126 Edition 47
Features:
●
Caterpillar exclusive vibratory pod design
delivers desired
balance between frequency and amplitude to provide
a superior matte finish. Pod-style weight housings
are factory sealed for longer bearing life and easy
serviceability.
●
Higher compaction forces
provide twice the compac-
tion force of the original design requiring fewer passes
for greater productivity.
●
Replaceable rubber mounts
isolate vibration and enhance
vibratory capabilities.
●
Durable high-strength steel drums
are roll formed and
finish welded for a smoother surface and longer life.
●
Pivoting interface
allows the drum to oscillate ±15° and
follow the contour of the ground.
●
Cat XT-3 hose and O-ring face seals
are used through-
out for superior leak-free performance.
Market Opportunities
●
Building/General Construction
— Vibratory compac-
tors can be used on construction sites to level and com-
pact soil around building foundations after backfilling.
●
Governmental/Municipalities (Street and Road Main-
tenance)
— Vibratory compactors are useful work
tools for compacting soil and crushed rock prior to
paving or pouring concrete. They are also useful for
compacting small areas of asphalt (pothole repair).
●
Landscaping/Landscape Maintenance
— Vibratory
compactors are used by landscaping contractors after
installing irrigation and water sprinkler systems. Golf
course maintenance departments will often use this
product to compact greens and fairways.
●
Paving
— Vibratory compactors are used by paving
contractors for smaller paving jobs (compacting soil
and crushed stone), compacting hot patch (pot hole
repair) or compacting material in tight areas where a
dedicated roller can’t maneuver.
●
Specialty Trades/Utilities
— Vibratory compactors
are ideal for compacting back-filled soil after trench-
ing and backhoe work.
Vibratory compactors
are productive work tools for
specialized applications. They are often used in conjunc-
tion with a bucket, cold planer and trencher.
