Standard Soil Compactor Tamping Tip

The full metal face tips are made of DH-2™ steel and heat treated
for strength to withstand high impact wear conditions and, therefore,
provide longer wear life when compacting soils containing rocky
material, in addition to gravel, coarse sand and low cohesion and
low adhesion type materials. In comparison, the standard tamping
tip is designed for use in low impact wear conditions, including
cohesive and adhesive softer soils such as clays and silty clays.

The full perimeter and replaceable tips are welded to a base
assembly which is then welded directly to the Caterpillar designed
and built wheel.

The tips are used in typical soil compaction applications where
coarser grained, low cohesive or low adhesive material is present.
