16 Ton Mechanical Vibratory Road Roller for Soil and Sub-Base
A 16 ton mechanical vibratory road roller gives heavy compaction for soil, gravel and crushed stone without the cost and upkeep of a full hydraulic drive train. It has one vibrating steel drum at the front and a gear-driven, rubber-tyred rear axle. We supply this Construction Single Drum Mechanical Driven 16 Ton Vibratory Road Roller from China to road builders and tender suppliers.
The case for a 16 ton mechanical vibratory road roller
Sixteen tons fills the gap between mid-size and heavy rollers. It works thicker lifts than a 12 ton machine, so crews can lay more fill per layer on highway and dam jobs. It is also lighter to ship than a 20 ton unit, which matters when freight is priced by weight and space.
Mechanical drive in the field
A gear and shaft drive has fewer hoses, pumps and seals to fail in heat and dust. For fleets far from a dealer, that can mean less downtime and simpler spare parts. The driver has fewer speed steps than on a hydraulic unit, so smooth reversing takes some practice.
The specification table lists hydraulic drive, operator cab/ROPS controlled as typical of this roller class. Since this model is mechanical, we confirm its drive and cab set-up with you.
Build and vibration
- Typical mechanism: vibrating front steel drum, rubber-tyred rear drive
- Typical build: steel drum shell, rubber drive tyres
- Vibration: frequency and amplitude can usually be switched between high and low
Ordering this roller
Before we quote, we check your soil type, lift depth, cab needs and destination port. We ship to Nigeria, Kenya and Ghana, and our notes on machinery export to Kenya cover port and currency details. For heavier work, compare the 18 to 26 ton single drum roller with frequency and amplitude modulation, or browse our construction machinery range.
