18 Ton Mechanical Vibratory Road Roller, Single Drum
This 18 ton mechanical vibratory road roller is a heavy single drum compactor for embankments, dam fills and highway sub-grade. A vibrating steel drum at the front packs the ground, while a mechanical drive line powers the rubber-tyred rear wheels. Listed as the Construction Single Drum Mechanical Driven 18Ton Vibratory Road Roller, it is made in China and supplied for export.
Heavy compaction with a simple drive
At 18 tons, the roller has the mass to work deep lifts of rock fill, gravel and mixed soil in fewer passes. The mechanical drive keeps the design simple, with gears and shafts in place of pumps and hoses. Workshops in many regions know this layout well, which helps when a machine needs service far from town.
How the 18 ton model fits the range
Single drum rollers of this type typically span a 7-26 tonne operating weight range, and this listing is the 18 ton version. If you want vibration settings you can fine-tune, the 18 to 26 ton single drum roller with frequency and amplitude modulation is the closer match. For finishing and sealing work, see our hydraulic pneumatic rollers.
Typical specification
The table below marks typical values with an asterisk. For this class they are usually:
- Vibrating front steel drum, rubber-tyred rear drive
- Steel drum shell, rubber drive tyres
- Hydraulic drive, operator cab/ROPS controlled
Because this roller is sold as mechanically driven, we confirm the actual drive and cab fitted before you order.
