Product Code : LSK-WT-10548
Builders Vibrator (SKU LSK-WT-10548) is a petrol-engine concrete vibrator for site work: a 5.5 hp engine drives a 45 mm poker through a 6 m flexible drive, so the poker can reach into columns, beams, walls and slabs while the engine stays outside the formwork. Construction training yards and civil engineering site practicals use it. Institutes, contractors and distributors can source the vibrator from Science Lab Supplies in Ambala, India.
Specifications
Every technical detail of the Builders Vibrator is listed in the table below. In short, a 5.5 hp petrol engine, independent of mains electricity, drives a 45 mm poker through a 6 m flexible drive shaft, so the poker can be lowered deep into freshly placed concrete while the engine stays outside the formwork.

Applications and Experiments for the Builders Vibrator
On construction courses the vibrator is used to compact concrete in formwork during structural pours, teaching trainees how to insert and withdraw the poker, space the insertions and avoid over-vibration. The long flexible drive lets them work at depth in columns and walls from a single engine position.
- Building-construction and concreting trades (TVET, ITI/NSQF): compacting concrete in slabs, beams and columns, with a Safety Helmet worn on the deck.
- Civil engineering diploma and B.Tech site practicals: demonstrating consolidation of reinforced concrete.
- Plant operation modules: starting, running and maintaining a small petrol engine and flexible drive.
- Formwork training: checking that vibrated concrete fills corners and covers reinforcement, with cover then measured on a Concrete Cover Meter.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Builders Vibrator used for?
It compacts freshly placed concrete on site. The 45 mm poker is lowered into slabs, beams, walls and columns to drive out trapped air so the hardened concrete is dense and fully bonded to the reinforcement.
How long is the flexible drive?
The flexible drive is 6 m long, so the petrol engine can stay on the ground or deck while the poker works deep inside formwork.
Who supplies the Builders Vibrator?
Science Lab Supplies supplies it from Ambala, India, for vocational institutes, polytechnics, contractors and distributors, and can quote it with other concreting tools.
How is it different from the Poker Vibrator in the same range?
This model is a 5.5 hp petrol site vibrator with a 45 mm poker and 6 m drive for structural pours. The Poker Vibrator is a lightweight unit, in petrol, mains or battery versions, for compacting test specimens.
