1.5T Trench Roller
- Cat Class:
- 160-9005
Product description
Our 1.5T trench rollers are compact, remote-controlled machines designed for high-performance soil compaction in narrow spaces and confined trenches. These padfoot drum rollers are purpose-built to deliver optimal compaction in cohesive soils such as clay and silt, using powerful oscillation and high centrifugal force.
Thanks to their compact frame and remote operation, these machines offer increased safety, visibility, and efficiency on jobsites where manual or ride-on operation isn't viable. They're an ideal solution for contractors seeking a reliable and easy-to-operate trench compactor for civil works, backfilling, and infrastructure projects.
Make, model and specifications may vary. Stocked models include but are not limited to those pictured.
- Ideal for compacting trenches and backfills
- Padfoot drum design for cohesive materials
