Description

NorthStar Reversible Plate Compactor (5.5 HP Honda GX160 Engine)

The NorthStar Reversible Plate Compactor is a contractor-grade compaction machine engineered for high-performance soil, gravel, sand, and aggregate compaction. Powered by the dependable Honda GX160 5.5 HP OHV engine, this unit delivers exceptional durability, fuel efficiency, and reliable power for demanding construction and landscaping applications.

Featuring a hydraulic reversible drive system, the compactor moves forward, reverse, and can perform spot compaction without repositioning, making it ideal for trenches, foundations, retaining walls, and confined work areas. With up to 4,046 lbs. of compaction force and 6,000 vibrations per minute, it provides deep, uniform compaction and increased jobsite productivity.

Its heavy-duty shock-mounted handle, reinforced protective cage, and integrated lifting eye are designed to withstand tough jobsite conditions while reducing operator fatigue and simplifying transportation.
