Husqvarna LF 100 LAT

The Husqvarna LF 100 LAT is a fast-operating, petrol-powered forward plate compactor designed for efficient compaction of asphalt and soil. Powered by a Honda GX160 engine, it delivers a centrifugal force of 17 kN and features a wide 500 mm compaction plate, making it suitable for professional road repairs, pavement maintenance, driveways, car parks and other construction applications.

Optimised for asphalt work, the LF 100 LAT features a specially designed base plate and an adjustable water distribution system that helps prevent the plate from sticking to hot asphalt or leaving unwanted turning marks. Its large, corrosion-resistant water tank and oversized filling cap help reduce downtime by allowing faster refilling and efficient water use.

Designed for operator comfort and practical site handling, the LF 100 LAT incorporates a patented low-vibration handle that reduces vibration exposure at the designated handle to below 2 m/s² under specified operating conditions. A folding handle and central lifting point simplify transportation, loading and storage, making this a practical machine for contractors carrying out regular paving and maintenance work.

Recommended applications

• Asphalt compaction: Compacting asphalt during road repairs, resurfacing and pavement maintenance.

• Driveways and car parks: Preparing and repairing asphalt surfaces in residential, commercial and industrial areas.

• Footpaths and pathways: Compacting asphalt and suitable granular sub-base materials for pedestrian routes.

• Road maintenance: Carrying out localised repairs and reinstatement work on roads and paved areas.

• Soil compaction: Consolidating suitable soils during groundwork and surface preparation.

• Commercial paving projects: Compaction across wider paved areas where a 500 mm plate improves coverage per pass.

• Block paving: Compacting finished paving blocks when fitted with a compatible optional protective paving kit.

• General construction maintenance: Preparing and consolidating suitable surfaces during external construction and repair work.

Key benefits
