Road Roller
WhatsApp Order
A Road Roller is a heavy-duty compaction machine used in construction to compress soil, asphalt, gravel, and other materials to improve surface stability and load-bearing capacity. It uses large cylindrical drums—sometimes vibratory or pneumatic—to eliminate air gaps and provide a smooth, dense surface. Road rollers are essential in road building, foundations, embankments, and landfills for long-lasting structural integrity.

Floor Jack
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
A floor jack is a mechanical device used to lift heavy vehicles, such as cars or trucks, off the ground to facilitate maintenance or repairs. It typically consists of a horizontal hydraulic cylinder, a handle for pumping, and a lifting pad that comes into contact with the vehicle's underside. By pumping the handle, hydraulic pressure is generated, causing the lifting pad to rise and lift the vehicle, providing a convenient and efficient way to access the undercarriage for various automotive tasks. Floor jacks are commonly found in automotive repair shops, garages, and for personal use by car enthusiasts.
Frog Tamping Rammer
A Frog Tamping Rammer is a compact, high-impact compaction machine used in construction for compacting soil, gravel, and sand in confined or hard-to-reach areas. Unlike larger plate or roller compactors, this rammer delivers a powerful vertical force through a narrow, foot-like base (hence the name “frog”) to compact cohesive and granular soils. Commonly powered by gasoline or diesel engines, it is ideal for trench work, pipeline backfilling, foundations, road repairs, and other applications where precision and deep compaction are essential. Known for its portability and high compaction force, the frog rammer is indispensable in urban construction, civil engineering, and landscaping projects.
Low Profile Floor Jack
A low-profile floor jack is a type of hydraulic jack designed specifically for vehicles with low ground clearance, such as sports cars or lowered vehicles. It is characterized by its compact and sleek design, allowing it to fit easily under vehicles with minimal ground-to-frame clearance. The low-profile nature of these jacks enables users to access and lift vehicles that may be challenging or impossible to reach with standard floor jacks. These jacks typically have a lower minimum height and a shorter body compared to regular floor jacks, making them suitable for lifting vehicles with limited space between the ground and the vehicle's frame.
Side Dumper
A side dumper is a heavy-duty trailer or hauling unit designed to unload materials by tipping its container to the side rather than the rear. Commonly used in construction, mining, agriculture, and waste management, the side dumper is engineered for fast, stable unloading of bulk materials such as soil, gravel, sand, rocks, and agricultural produce. Its side-tipping mechanism minimizes the risk of tipping over compared to rear dumpers, especially on uneven terrain. Side dumpers increase productivity by enabling quick unloading and reducing turnaround times in high-volume material handling operations.
Vibrating Rammer
A Vibrating Rammer is a specialized construction tool designed to compact soil and other granular materials in confined or narrow spaces. It features a heavy foot plate that delivers rapid, high-impact blows combined with vibrations to achieve deep and effective compaction. This equipment is especially useful for trench work, backfill compaction around pipes, and areas inaccessible to larger compactors. The rammer’s powerful, up-and-down impact motion and vibrating action increase soil density, reduce air pockets, and improve load-bearing capacity, which is critical for stable foundations and infrastructure longevity. Commonly powered by gasoline or diesel engines, vibrating rammers are robust, portable, and essential for civil engineering, landscaping, and road construction projects.
Vibrating Screen
A Vibrating Screen is an industrial screening machine used to separate materials by size through vibration. It consists of a mesh screen that oscillates to facilitate the sorting and classification of granular or particulate materials such as sand, gravel, minerals, coal, and aggregates. The vibration helps move materials across the screen while finer particles pass through the mesh openings, and larger materials continue over for further processing or disposal. Vibrating screens are vital in mining, construction, recycling, and material processing industries, enhancing efficiency by sorting materials quickly and accurately. They come in various configurations, including circular, linear, and elliptical motion screens, designed to meet specific application needs.
Wheel Loader
A Wheel Loader is a heavy-duty construction machine designed for loading, transporting, and moving bulk materials such as soil, gravel, sand, and debris. It features a large front-mounted bucket attached to hydraulic arms that allow for lifting, carrying, and dumping materials efficiently. Wheel loaders vary in size from compact models suitable for tight spaces to large machines designed for heavy-duty operations. Their excellent maneuverability, high lifting capacity, and versatility with various attachments such as forks, grapples, and snow plows make them indispensable in construction, mining, agriculture, and waste management industries. These machines help increase productivity by speeding up material handling and site preparation tasks.
Winch
A winch is a mechanical device used to pull in, let out, or adjust the tension of a rope, cable, or chain. It consists of a spool (or drum) operated manually or powered by electricity, hydraulics, or a combustion engine. Winches are commonly used in construction, vehicle recovery, marine applications, off-road towing, and industrial lifting. Their ability to exert controlled pulling force makes them essential in material handling and rigging operations where moving heavy objects with precision is required.
