Bartell forward plates are innovative, hard-hitting, and low maintenance. The BCF1570 is our most popular forward compactor and is perfect for a wide range of compaction applications. The built-in water tank allows the compactor to be used on asphalt, and also allows for better dust control on dirt/soil. 

It has a robust throttle control mounted on the anti-vibration handle for safe and convenient operator control. This handle folds for compact storage.  The BFC1570 has retractable wheels that fold down for built-in mobility and it also has an integrated lifting bale for safe loading and unloading.

The straight edge plate design leaves no unreachable margins. A sealed housing keeps debris from interfering with the belt. The built in water tank is removable.

An optional urethane mat protects pavers and slabs from scratches and breakage and is sold separately.
