Slope packer attachment

The Thompson Slope Packer attachment eliminates the expensive and time-consuming task of packing slopes by the traditional method of “walking” them with a bulldozer or crawler tractor and is up to 10 times faster. It allows the contractor to pack slopes on any grade and in any soil condition, from above or below the grade, using the weight of the attachment and the flexibility of the boom to compact the soil on the grade. The Slope Packer attachment is available in 4-, 6- and 8-foot widths for a variety of excavator sizes. It reduces fuel consumption and packs soil right up to objects and silt fences without causing damage.
