What is a Tamping Beam used for ?
For a superior finish on your construction project, the use of a tamping beam is essential. This tool effectively compacts the concrete before it sets completely, significantly boosting the durability of the surface.
Operated by a pair of workers, this heavy duty flooring rule helps in manually compressing and smoothing the concrete to achieve the desired level. With the option of short or long handles, operators can skillfully manage the concrete tamp, ensuring a uniform and controlled finish even across extensive beam spans, with short handles being the go-to choice for working close to the ground.
The robust Hand Concrete Tamper stands out for laying the perfect foundation and flooring, producing smooth, flawlessly leveled surfaces that are both functional and aesthetically pleasing.
The trades we sell the most of our straight edges and tamping beams to are Industrial Floor Screeders, Landscapers and Patio Installers, General Builders.
