Belle PCLX40 40cm Petrol Compactor Plate
The Belle PCLX 40 is a professional-grade 16" forward plate compactor built for a wide range of compaction tasks on construction and groundworks sites. Powered by a genuine Honda GX120 engine and delivering 13kN of centrifugal force at a travel speed of 20m/min, it combines strong compaction performance with a Low Hand Arm Vibration design and contoured baseplate for productive, comfortable, and manoeuvrable operation. Widely regarded as one of the most robust and user-friendly plates in its class.
The PCLX 40 is powered by a Honda GX120 petrol engine producing 3.2hp (2.4kW) at 3,850rpm — a proven, reliable unit that is widely used across professional groundworks equipment for its ease of starting and low maintenance requirements.
The 13kN vibration unit delivers a static pressure of 350kg/m² across the 400mm wide baseplate, providing thorough compaction of granular soils, hardcore, and sub-base materials. A travel speed of 20m/min allows ground to be covered quickly without sacrificing compaction quality, improving overall productivity on larger areas. The contoured baseplate profile prevents the plate from digging in when dragged back or turned, making repositioning smooth and reducing operator effort during manoeuvring.
The Low Hand Arm Vibration (LHAV) design keeps vibration transmission to the operator at 2.50m/sec², extending safe daily usage times in compliance with vibration exposure regulations — an important consideration for professional users subject to HAVS requirements.
At 68.5kg the PCLX 40 is substantial enough for serious compaction work while remaining manageable for loading and transport. Operating dimensions of 400 x 950 x 935mm reduce to a more compact 400 x 790 x 620mm in storage configuration for easier handling and vehicle loading.
