12 Ton Mechanical Vibratory Road Roller, Single Drum
The 12 ton mechanical vibratory road roller is a mid-weight single drum compactor for sub-base, shoulders and rural road building. A vibrating steel drum at the front does the compacting, and a mechanical drive line turns the rubber-tyred rear wheels. We make the Construction Single Drum Mechanical Driven 12 Ton Vibratory Road Roller in China and quote it on EXW, FOB, CFR or CIF terms.
Why choose a mechanical drive
A mechanical drive moves the roller with gears and shafts, not pumps and motors. Many fleet owners in remote areas prefer it, because a local workshop can repair gears and clutches with common tools and parts. The trade-off is less smooth speed control, so drivers need a little more care when they reverse on fresh fill.
The specification table lists hydraulic drive, operator cab/ROPS controlled as typical for this class. Because this model is mechanically driven, we confirm the exact drive line and cab with you before production.
Where a 12 ton mechanical vibratory road roller works best
Twelve tons is a flexible weight. It is heavy enough for gravel sub-base and medium lifts of soil, yet light enough for village roads, farm roads and bridge approaches. For deep fills a heavier model helps, and for asphalt a double drum mechanical driven static road roller gives a cleaner finish.
Typical build
- Vibrating front steel drum, rubber-tyred rear drive
- Steel drum shell, rubber drive tyres
- Operator seat on a platform, with a ROPS cab usually available
Trade terms and delivery
We quote under EXW, FOB, CFR or CIF, as set out on our page on shipping, Incoterms and export documents. Buyers in Nigeria, Kenya and Ghana usually ask us for CIF to their main port, so sea freight and insurance sit in one figure.
