The DEK RM80 Petrol Rammer / Trench Compactor 75kg is built for compacting in places where a larger plate compactor is not always the right fit. The Collingwoods product page describes it as a heavy duty and compact unit with exceptional compaction force, making it a practical option for drain layers, contractors and hire companies who need a machine that can work effectively in tighter areas. 

This rammer is especially well suited to sand, gravel and mixed soils in narrow trenches and along foundations, walls and drains, which makes it a handy machine for New Zealand building, drainage and groundwork jobs where trench compaction is important. It is powered by a 5hp 4-stroke Loncin petrol engine and combines portability with enough striking force for serious site work. 

The product page lists an impact force of 10KN, percussion rate of 450-650 r/min, jumping stroke of 40-65mm, forward speed of 9-13 m/min, and a foot size of 300 x 290mm. At an operating weight of 75kg, it has the weight and impact needed for effective trench and foundation compaction while still being manageable to move around site. The listing also mentions lifting handles and rollers for easy loading, which is a useful feature when loading in and out of a ute or trailer. 

As with the other serviceable machines we sell, this unit is oiled, started and tested in our workshop prior to delivery, and we can support it with in-house servicing and repairs in Hamilton along with backup and replacement parts. The DEK RM80 Petrol Rammer / Trench Compactor is backed by a 12 month domestic warranty and 6 month commercial warranty.
