Reliable Equipment REL-TMP-72 Hydraulic Pole Tamper – 72", Valve on Tube
The Reliable Equipment REL-TMP-72 Hydraulic Pole Tamper makes quick work of setting poles, asphalt patching, and general construction backfill compaction. At 72" with a valve-on-tube configuration, it delivers 1,160 blows per minute at 5 gpm with only 3 moving parts — engineered for low maintenance and long service life in demanding utility and construction environments. The reversible On/Off valve is compatible with both Open- and Closed-Center hydraulic systems via a rotate trigger selector.
Key Features
- Only 3 moving parts — minimal complexity for low maintenance and high reliability in the field
- 1,160 blows per minute at 5 gpm — high-frequency impact for fast, efficient compaction
- Valve-on-tube configuration — rotate trigger selector for Open- and Closed-Center hydraulic system compatibility
- Standard kidney-shaped foot (2.5" x 8") — optimized foot geometry for pole setting and backfill compaction
- 72" length — extended reach for comfortable operation during pole setting
- SAE O-Ring port threads — 9/16-18 pressure port and 3/4-16 return port for standard hydraulic connections
