Tamping rammers, also called jumping jacks, compact soil with a fast up-and-down foot. Contractors, plumbers and utility crews use them to compact clay and mixed soil in trenches, around footings and pipes, and behind retaining walls where a plate compactor will not fit.

How to choose a tamping rammer

  • Weight and impact: heavier rammers, around 70kg to 80kg, compact deeper layers. Lighter units are easier to move in small trenches.
  • Engine: most use 5HP to 7.5HP gasoline engines from Honda, Robin, Lifan and others. Choose an engine you can service locally.
  • Foot size: a narrow foot fits trenches. A wider foot covers more area per pass.
  • Handling: look for a well-damped handle to reduce vibration for the operator.

Rammer or plate compactor?

Rammers suit clay and cohesive soil and narrow spaces. For sand, gravel and paving base over open areas, a plate compactor is faster. For long stretches of road base and asphalt, see walk-behind road rollers. Compact in thin layers for the best result, and see other light construction machinery.

All products from KHM Megatools are genuine and covered by the manufacturer's warranty where applicable.
