Tampers From CP Strike Hard, Hit Fast

- National Edition

Chicago Pneumatic Tampers are designed to deliver fast, hard-hitting power that leads to high productivity for operators.

Equipped with powerful engines, efficient carburetors and high-capacity air filters, Chicago Pneumatic tampers range in weight from 137 lb. (64 kg) to 185 lb. (84 kg).

Honda engines drive both the Chicago Pneumatic MS 620, one of the fastest pieces of compaction equipment on the market, and the powerful MS 680, which provides the consistent, hard-hitting power typically associated with bigger machines, according to the manufacturer.

"It jumps more than it runs," said Eudes Defoe, product manager handheld tools North America of Chicago Pneumatic Construction Equipment. "Our MS tampers were constructed to enhance productivity on the job site."

The MS 840, the largest and strongest tamper in the Chicago Pneumatic MS line, has the best compaction capability and its Hatz diesel engine provides extra force.

The interchangeable bottom plates are 9 in. (23 cm) wide on the smallest unit and 11 in. (28 cm) wide on the other models. All Chicago Pneumatic tampers offer low fuel consumption and reduced exhaust emissions.

These tampers also are designed with an extra strong metal frame and efficient shock absorbers. These features provide operators with good traction and allow for fast, easy handling, according to the manufacturer.
