Description

Multiquip Mikasa One-Way Plate Compactors – Job-Site Proven Performance

Multiquip’s Mikasa line of vibratory plates raises the bar for soil and asphalt compaction, giving contractors a professional-grade solution that travels easily, hits hard, and lasts for years. Whether you need a nimble vibratory plate compactor for patch work or a heavyweight compactor vibratory plate for large backfill areas, this rugged lineup delivers. Every vibrating compactor in the family pairs a Honda engine with an engineered base that channels maximum centrifugal force into the ground—driving density fast while reducing passes and operator fatigue.

Stand-Out Engineering

✔️ Advanced Anti-Vibration Handle
Multiquip’s best-selling MVC88 models incorporate a redesigned handle that lowers transmitted vibration by up to 50 percent, letting crews run the one-way plate compactors longer with less fatigue.

✔️ Heavy-Duty Base Plates
Each vibratory plate compactor features a precision-ground plate that glides smoothly yet absorbs relentless impact energy, delivering uniform compaction on granular soils and hot asphalt.

✔️ Honda GX Power
Field-proven GX engines start quickly, sip fuel, and require minimal upkeep, giving every compactor vibratory plate the reliable torque needed for dense lifts in fewer passes.

Key Benefits for Productivity

  • ✅ Easy Handling – Balanced weight distribution and forward-moving design help operators steer the vibrating compactor with fingertip control, even along edges and forms.
  • ✅ Low Maintenance – Rugged cast components, sealed belts, and oversized bearings extend service intervals, keeping one-way plate compactors on site and out of the shop.
  • ✅ Versatile Options – Water-tank variants suppress dust on asphalt patches, while narrow-plate models fit inside utility trenches and around structures.

Choosing the Right Size

  • Tight Spaces & Light Repair: MVC40H and MVC60VTHW excel where maneuverability matters most.
  • General Construction: MVC82 variants balance plate width with high centrifugal force, ideal for sidewalks, footings, and landscaping.
  • Large Pads & Patch Work: MVC88 models lead the fleet when broad coverage and reduced passes are critical to meeting tight schedules.
