Most plate compactors are relatively basic machines that have very similar features. The main differences are between forward and reversible options. The main difference between those plates is that a forward only goes in a forward direction, and a reversible plate can go in both directions. What is a reversible plate compactor used for? Reversible plate compactors are often used on job sites with confined working areas or for smaller projects that require deeper compaction rates than smaller machines can achieve.
