Product catalog summary
Overview: The R422 and R442 Series Rammers are designed for compacting granular, mixed, and cohesive soils in confined areas. They are lightweight, weighing less than 145 lbs for the R422 and 150 lbs for the R442, and are powered by Honda engines. These rammers are a staple in contractor and municipal fleets due to their productivity and durability.
Specifications: Both models feature an 11" high-density ductile cast iron tamping shoe, with optional 4" and 6" trench shoes available for the R422. The percussion rate is up to 750 blows per minute, with a fuel capacity of 4.6 quarts. The operating weight is 145 lbs for the R422 and 150 lbs for the R442, with a travel speed of up to 55 ft/min and a compaction depth of up to 18 inches.
Innovative Features: The rammers incorporate high-density non-metallic slide bearings and spring separators, which last up to six times longer than metal counterparts, reducing friction and heat. The compression springs are made from stress-relieved, chrome-silicon alloy steel, and the percussion housing is made from lightweight, durable aluminum alloy.
Smart Rammer Technology: The Smart Rammer series includes integral tachometers and hour meters to ensure optimal operation and maintenance scheduling. This technology is optional on the R422 and R442 models and standard on the R482/483 models.
Maintenance and Durability: MBW rammers are designed to minimize maintenance issues, with features like a 1/8" thick polyethylene fuel tank, non-metallic spring separators, and 4-ply vulcanized rubber bellows. The percussion system is designed to prevent damage in case of lubricant loss, and the slide bearings can be replaced at a low cost.
Warranty: MBW offers a 5-year warranty on the percussion system slide bearings and bellows, reflecting the durability and reliability of their design.

SMART RAMMER SERIES The Smartest Rammers in the industry, this MBW line is equipped with integral tachometers and hour meters that indicate when maximum operational performance is being reached and when maintenance intervals are needed. The result is higher productivity and increased service life. Weighs between 158-177 lbs. (72-80 kg). Models R482R and R483R are recommended for altitude above 4000 ft. RAMMER SPECIFICATIONS Published lift capacity reflects ideal conditions (clean sand, optimum moisture). Good compaction practice restricts lift depth to a maximum of 12 inches for granular soils,...

RAMMER PERFORMANCE HIGH PERFORMANCE PERCUSSION RAMMERS MBW approaches rammer development aggressively. We attack high maintenance issues usually associated with this product type. The MBW delivery system is the lowest friction, heat, and maintenance percussion unit in the industry. Less friction, heat, and wear in the delivery system translates into lower continuous horsepower demands to keep the rammer running. That means fewer engine problems and longer engine life. Bellows failures are reduced by as much as 90% with MBW’s 4-ply, steel reinforced, vulcanized rubber bellows. MBW addresses maintenance...
