Mikasa MVC88VTH Forward Plate Compactor

The Mikasa MVC88VTH is the next generation of forward plate compactors, engineered to deliver higher productivity, longer life, and greater operator comfort. With 3,372 lbf of compaction force, a robust 19.7 in (50 cm) plate, and a single-cast baseplate and eccentric housing, this model boosts speed and durability on tough jobsites. Now standard with an hour/tachometer, upgraded wheel kit, and advanced anti-vibration handle, the MVC88 sets the new benchmark for power, precision, and ease of use.

FEATURES

• HONDA GX160 ENGINE: Industry-trusted for reliability and performance, this engine offers easy starts, fuel efficiency, and automatic low oil shutdown to protect the engine and extend service life.
• 3,372 LBF COMPACTION FORCE: High-impact force delivers dense, even compaction in fewer passes, making it perfect for granular soil, asphalt patching, and site prep work.
• PLATE SIZE - 19.7 IN (50 CM): The wide plate provides increased surface coverage, speeding up productivity on larger areas while maintaining excellent control and maneuverability.
• CYCLOMIC PRE-CLEANER: Captures airborne contaminants before they reach the air filter, protecting the engine and reducing maintenance costs in dusty conditions.
• SINGLE CAST BASEPLATE & ECCENTRIC HOUSING: A one-piece design lowers the center of gravity, improves balance, and increases travel speed by 12%, resulting in smoother, faster, and more efficient compaction.
• HOUR/TACHOMETER: Built-in meter displays runtime and engine RPM, making it easier to schedule maintenance and monitor machine usage for better fleet management.
• TUBULAR STEEL ROLL BAR: Protects vital engine components while serving as a centralized lifting point for safe and easy loading or unloading.
• SEALED BELT COVER: Keeps debris out of the belt system, significantly extending belt life and lowering maintenance frequency.
• OPEN BASE PLATE DESIGN: Allows debris to clear easily, reducing downtime caused by rock and dirt buildup underneath the machine.
• COG-TOOTH BELT DRIVE: Provides superior strength and lifespan compared to standard V-belts, especially under continuous heavy-duty use.
• UPGRADED WHEEL KIT: New integrated transport wheels make moving the unit on-site faster and easier, improving jobsite efficiency and reducing operator fatigue.
• ADVANCED ANTI-VIBRATION HANDLE: Dramatically reduces vibration transmission to the operator’s hands and arms, allowing for longer, more comfortable use with less fatigue.
• OPTIONAL WATER TANK - 13.7 QUART (13 L): Ideal for asphalt applications, the large-capacity tank controls dust and keeps the plate clean. It’s removable for easy refilling without moving the unit.
• OPTIONAL POLYURETHANE PADS: Ideal for paver applications, polyurethane pads help protect delicate surfaces from scuffing or marking while delivering effective compaction.
• OPTIONAL WHEEL KIT: A wheel kit option is available for enhanced transport convenience between job locations.
