This Bomag BMP8500 is a walk-behind compactor — sometimes called a plate compactor or vibratory compactor — a machine used to compact soil, gravel, asphalt, and other base materials on road construction, utility trenching, and general civil works projects. Bomag is a well-established German manufacturer specialising in compaction and road-building equipment, supplying machines to contractors and civil engineering operations worldwide.
This 2011 machine is offered used from California, USA, and is priced at $8,500. A notable feature of this unit is its convertible drum configuration, which allows the operator to switch between a 24-inch drum and a 33-inch drum, giving flexibility across different job site requirements — narrower passes for confined areas or wider coverage for open surfaces.
Power is provided by a Kubota diesel engine, a widely used and well-regarded unit in compact construction equipment. The machine supports both wireless remote control and corded remote control operation, giving the operator the option to work at a safe distance from the machine or use a direct wired connection depending on site conditions or preference.
