Stehr Compaction Wheel

As an alternative to vibratory plates, Stehr produces a purely mechanical compaction wheel for mounting on an excavator.

Stehr has more than 30 years of experience in manufacturing special-purpose machines for road construction and soil treatment.

The best compaction results are achieved by utilising the excavator’s own weight, as up to 60% of the force can be transferred to the compaction wheel. This ensures highly effective compaction, particularly in cohesive and clay-rich soils.

Application

  • Compaction of backfilled soil in, for example, trenches and channels.

Advantages

  • 100% mechanical – no hydraulics.
  • Mounted using quick-coupler devices.
  • No maintenance.
  •  Compacting soil/clay down to a depth of 1 metre per workflow.
  • Can be used in hard-to-access areas.
