3-5T Padfoot Roller
- Cat Class:
- 160-9010
Product description
Our 3-5T padfoot rollers deliver consistent compaction in tight or restricted-access environments, making them ideal for smaller civil construction tasks such as trench work, backfill, and sub-grade preparation. Featuring a padfoot drum design, with a dozer blade, these rollers are specifically built to compact cohesive soils like clay, which require high pressure and kneading action to achieve optimal density.
These compact rollers are perfect for contractors needing powerful compaction capability in a small, manoeuvrable form. All units are well-maintained and fully compliant with site safety standards.
Make, model and specifications may vary. Stocked models include but are not limited to those pictured.
