Allied Construction Products

Allied Construction Products introduces the Skid-Pac Model 1000, which features vibratory compactor technology and is mounted on a skid-steer loader. It can travel quickly over soil in flatwork and is designed to deliver increased impact energy. The Skid-Pac features a four-function valve and maintenance-free oil splash bearing lubrication. A 9-foot square base plate covers the outside width of the skid-steer tires to eliminate marks in the soil. This attachment fits all manufacturers' skid steers in the 4,000-pound to 14,000-pound weight range that use the universal-mounting quick-change couplers.
