The Bomag BMP8500 is a walk-behind compactor — sometimes called a plate compactor or jumping jack, depending on configuration — designed for compacting soil, gravel, and fill material in confined or trench applications. Walk-behind compactors of this type are workhorses on civil construction, utility, and road repair sites where larger ride-on equipment cannot maneuver. Bomag is a well-established German manufacturer with a long history of producing compaction equipment for the construction and road-building industries, and their walk-behind units are widely used in both rental fleets and contractor-owned equipment pools.
This 2018 machine is fitted with a Kubota diesel engine, offering dependable power and the fuel efficiency associated with that engine brand. The drum or plate measures 32 inches in width, making it well suited for trench compaction work where a wider footprint would be impractical. A notable feature of this unit is its dual-control capability: it can be operated via either wireless or wired remote control, giving the operator flexibility to stand clear of the compaction zone — a useful safety and ergonomic advantage in trench or confined-space work.
The machine is described as serviced and ready to work. It is located in North Dakota, USA, and is listed at $13,900. Financing and delivery are available.
